Lovers

If love was lost at sea then mourn its passing carefully

Some day when your heart subsides

Then give into the open tide

I set you apart; you are a girl of mystery

I set you apart from time and history

Waiting all her life,

You have been spending your days all alone

Like a widow grieving

You hold onto the promise that you will see him again

Like lovers in the evening

Look softly into her eyes; a figure of bluish green

You are familiar as a lullaby,

Or an actress on the silver screen

For the open and great unknown,

You're leaving your heart at home

Cruel and vast black waters,

You leave behind your daughters

He regrets all his memories

And his soul is left to haunt the breeze alone
