I don't think that
I ever want to marry

Why love when you know
You can never love like that again

Let these words remind you
Of the girl with the golden eyes
How she would stare off into the distance
Not showing she was traumatized

Her days are filled with pain
Her nights of memory passed
Of a sailor who loved her
A love that did not last

For months they kissed
Under the cherry trees
Their smell so sweet
While there was a breeze

But one day he left
With his pole in his grasp
They shared one more moment
They did not know it'd be their last

She waited with the sun
And she stayed awake with the moon
But her lovely sailor boy
Was in his water tomb

She cried for many days
Asking how could it be
God whispered in her ear
"Don't worry miss, your sailor boy is now with me."

I hate it when you work
Cause when you are gone
He screams and yells
He threats us like little pawns

He controls us
When you disappear
Gone until one
I shed the tears

I am quaking
Shaking
Heart breaking
And aching

Because I fear my dear
That one night
You will never
Come back
