Will he see my lantern burn in this pitch black cove tonight, Will he know my heart beats strong, a beacon of sweet light, Can he see my frightened eyes, can he hear my trembling cries, And it's only when he's near, will I be right. He went to sea some time ago, and I yearn for his return, With every storm that rocks this coast, I make the fire burn, Can he see me through the mist, can he feel my gentle kiss, And it's only when he's near, will I be right, And it's only when he's near, will I be right. They say 'is ship, it ran aground and every hand was lost, I'll walk these cliffs all winter long, 'til my heart is numb with frost, I swore to him we'd never part, I couldn't save his drowning heart, And it's only when he's near, will I be right, Will he see my lantern burn in this pitch black cove tonight, Will he know my heart beats strong, a beacon of sweet light, Can he see my frightened eyes, can he hear my trembling cries, And it's only when he's near, will I be right, And it's only when he's near, will I be right. |
