lirik lagu lost crowns - a sailor and his true love

Loading...

a sailor and his true love
his true love and he
stood hand in hand in shallow water
gazing out to sea
and with every gentle wave
a little more to sand their weight they gave
the weight their feet were holding gone
into the land that they were standing on

the sailor told his true love
“my true love” said he
“my ship is docked but in the harbour
is waiting for me
kiss me once again, dear heart
then bid adieu farewell for we must part”
and all the while the water found
subtle and strange its ways to change the ground

oh my precious sailor, my dear darling man
i want to keep you here with me, oh please say that i can
you can tell the captain and old england and the sea
not a thousand ships nor england’s glory love
can take you now from me

oh sweet pretty maiden, you’ve claimed all i had
and now to lose all that i once gave value i’d be glad
let the vessel fracture, let it sink and drown the crew
where the waves brought rousing calls of duty once
well it’s all now lost in you
hear me, lover, hear me, let me make you sure
i’ll be your crew and captain dear, all that they were and more
hold me, sailor, hold me, let our feet sink deep in clay
with a hand so tightly held in my hand, love, let day turn night turn day

so lost, so very lost in love for you, i can’t tell land from sky
i see the water pass across my feet but are they wet or dry?
is this the light of early morning or the light of evening’s fall?
so lost, so very lost in your beauty, i cannot tell at all

ships are setting sailing as all england knows
but i’ve seen ships on painted plates, is mine just paint like those?
i’ve seen ships in bottles, is it those ships i’ve been in?
where do darkening skies above me finish? where do bottle’s walls begin?

so lost, so very lost in love for you i can’t tell if i see
three ships on christmas day come sailing in, or leaving without me
let us be hid by tide’s approaching then revealed by tide’s withdrawal
so lost, so very lost in your beauty, my life~long love, my all

there stood the sailor and his one true love
his one true love and he
while thames and eden, derwent, trent and tay reached ankle, shin then knee
as they stood let us stand now, my love, let us stand now, we too
as he stood, sank and drowned in his true love
by tide dragged down i stand, sink, drown in you
