G D
Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers
C Em
Drew me loving to your isle
[Chorus 1]

And you sang, Sail to me, Sail to me, Let me enfold you
Em D C Em
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you
[Verse 2]
G D
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
C Em
Were you hare when I was fox
G D
Now my foolish boat is leaning
C Em
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
[Chorus 2]
G F Em G
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow
Em D C Em
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"
[Verse 3]
G D
I'm as puzzled as the newborn child
C Em
I'm as troubled as the tide
G D
Should I stand amid the breakers?
C Em
Should I lie with Death my bride?

Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you
Em D C Em
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"
