Long afloat on shipless oceans I did all my best to smile Till your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle And you sang: Sail to me Sail to me; let me enfold you Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you La la, la la, la la la La la, la la, la la la Now, did I dream you dreamed about me? Were you here when I was full-sail? Now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks For you sing: Touch me not Touch me not; come back tomorrow Oh, my heart; oh, my heart Shies from the sorrow Well, I'm as puzzled as a newborn child I'm as riddled as the tide Should I stand amid the breakers Or should I lie with death, my bride? Hear me sing: Swim to me Swim to me; let me enfold you Here I am, here I am Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you
