LYRICS

When you sing of lonesome ships
Is it me on the sea?
When the nightingale comes
Is it my lullaby
That bids you to lay your head on the ultramarine
Stars through silk curtains and wind low and dry?

When you toss in the night
Is it me who you dream
Like a ghost on the wave
Riding high on the tide
Calling to you in an elegant stream
Warming your blood and your bed by your side?

When you wake in the rays do the gulls make you pine?
Do you whisper to God on the vine of your mind?
Make strides in the sand and scan for my sails?
Sweeping your hair back and burying time?

When the oven is grown
Is it I in the pie?
When the new one is born
May I watch from his eyes?
Sing to him sweetly now and let the child learn
A song of sanguinity now until I return

When you dive in the reefs are the colors sublime?
Do the reds and bright yellows make love with your eyes?
Do you know I'll be there when you come up for air?
Sweeping your hair back and burying time?
