My Sailor

Oh my sailor,

My sailor, across the sea

Far, far from me,

Where I pine and dream,

But cannot be

with my sailor across the sea.

 

Oh my sailor.

My sailor, across the sea.

Please think of me

While I wait here for you,

Patiently

For my sailor across the sea.

 

Oh my sailor,

My sailor, across the sea,

The dreams you dream.

The sights you see,

Both without me.

How can we be?

How, my sailor across the sea?

 

Oh my sailor,

My sailor, across the sea

Where will you be?

When your journey is o’er

Will you come home to me?

Please, my sailor across the sea.

 

Oh my sailor,

My sailor across the sea,

I know your love has turned from me,

Now it belongs to the endless sea,

Where you will always be

Gone, my sailor of the sea.
