Do you remember
The flagship's contender?
The rolling cold waves by the dock
And she herself was the sender
So did you attend her
Last day of rest by the rock?
She'd written you notes
passed by sailors on boats
But you would just sit there and cry
As she sat feeding the goats
With barley and oats
While you watched from your tower in the sky
And she didn't forget
The first time you'd met
By the lake house with dusk's tender fall
And her kiss was a threat
That put you in debt
When you told her that she was your all
Her undying love letter
Didn't make you feel better
As you knew you were claimed by the sea
How could you let her
Become your love debtor
When you knew that it never could be
When you returned
Your stomach it turned
As you stared at her home by the lake
And her father confirmed
Of what you already had learned
That her death was your cold mistake
On her funeral day
You had nothing to say
Clutching the letters she wrote in your fist
And you couldn't stay
you'd lead her astray
But loved her from the moment you kissed
