| "There!" he cried, "Cast your line there!" For dancing on the water he spied his heart's lost love, so fair. "But Sir," they said with concern for their friend "All we but see is the sunset sleeping at the water's end." "No! Can't you tell?" pled he "She beckons us to go. Her arms are waves, her dress the sea, 'Tis she who we must follow!" "Oh Captain," they replied "It has since been many years. You must let go, your love has died. You must stop shedding tears." Whispered, "But she waits for me," was all his humble plea, as the boat continued sailing its voyage down the sea. So many a sailor today has seen her dancing there- Her dress the sea, her call a wave- No sunset to compare. And while they sail life away She takes what they hold dear. For they loved the sea more than the day They fled from love in fear. |
