Like a ship that docks at night From treacherous waters you flee Calm comes with mornings dawn You head back out to sea While hoisting up your anchor Once again I must resign I can not tether you my love Because you are not mine So in the shadows I remain To all the world I’m hidden Clenching onto something wrong A love that is forbidden I know that I should step aside Say goodbye to mon amore Set your sails sweet Captain Leave this outlawed shore Stormy seas will come and go Times of comfort and distress Man your sails Sailor boy Your crew you must address Should you ever grow weary Of the sea and the sand Hand over the wheel And relinquish your command Cast that anchor one last time Sing your farewell song Then come to me Sailor boy This time it won’t be wrong
