Well, you know I'm a sailor, tomorrow we sail

And if I surrender my life to the sea

You can marry another, it's alright with me

Though we won't be together again 'til the spring

Just imagine the treasures I'll bring

Come lay with me, stay with me, soon I'll be gone

And when I return to the one that I miss

Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss

The sweeter the kiss

When the mornings are warm and the valleys are green

I'll come back from wherever I've been

It's better my darling, I promise you this

But next time I hold you, I'm not letting go

We will give up the ocean forever, I know
C G
Forever I know.
