My lover’s gone, his boots no longer by my door
He left at dawn and as I slept I felt him go
Returns no more I will not watch the oceanMy lover’s gone no earthly ships will ever bring him home again
My lover’s gone, I know that kiss will be my last
No more his song, the tune upon his lips has passed
I sing alone while I watch the oceanMy lover’s gone no earthly ships will ever bring him home again
