He's standing on the docks of love
The waves are crashing up above

She went in first took off her shoes
He's standing there in his boots confused

Should he jump or run for shore
It may take his life, is she worth more

He hears her calling out his name
But if he jumps nothing stays the same

Duty calls him from safe and dry
He doesn't save her, he doesn't try

And when his duty is all done
He will find another one

One that finally pulls him in
The sea of love against his skin

As for her, her shoes there still
She found no love and never will

Because it take two in a treacherous sea
And even though he heard her plea

It's silent now her heart beat strong
She made it to shore it took so long

When she finally made it there
She realize he didn't care

For she found his boots with a different pair
She wept an ocean in despair

Now a new love ocean rages
She'll be remembered through the ages

As the women who carried her shoes
And sank to the bottom of the ocean blue
