I waited for the wretched seas one day to return to me .
Who gave my love her resting place .
And so I believed the wretched sea would some day
do the same for me
But whenst it came it came in with a whine ,
and asked me not to waste my time .
And so she left ,
and returned again ,
For she said
“ you’re love is dead ,
now leave me be ,
or even you might
one day
belong to me ?”
.
that raging beast that took her life ,
when we were serenading by the banks of the Clyde
A mighty wave took her away ,
for that I am for sure .
And now she asks me ,
Lapping like a dog at her masters feet
When all I wanted her to do was to spit and howl .with rage at me .
O cursed sea won’t you please return my love to me
But now You come to me with open arms
For alone I see now, her footsteps , and her charms ,
dissapearing into an open grave .
Where not even a shivrless man that was so brave ,
would venture more than his toe to save.
And to wrestle that great beast upon the shore
the likes of which I would see no more .
But out there is where my beloved lies ,
below tranquil seas and dark blue skies
And if I am to see her again ,
Then i must sumon up the gates of hell .
And hense be noted before the brave ,
That in these once troubled waters ,
I did once lend my hand to save .
Then one morning
with a chirping of the birds ,
a body of a young girl once bound to the sea ,
was Surrendered and given back to me .
But I For one was never found ,
Thou in the winds and rains my voice
Can still be found .
