Sailor's Lament

Sweet Lorraine
With lips like the finest of champagne
You stole my heart at twenty-three
Here tonight, to you I write this love letter from the sea
God bless you darlin, being there for me

Days are long here, the work is hard my dear
I'm not getting any sleep
Waves keep rolling
It takes its toll on a man
It robs me of my dreams
So I watch the moon, and pray you do the same, thinking of me

And Every morning
I watch the sun peak over the horizon in the east
My love is the sun light, I am the ocean reflecting every color that she weaves

Forever yours
Sincerely
Me

Sweet Lorraine
Your scent like lemon grass and sage
Dances off your last reply
It's been a year now, I can't think clearly anymore
On this vessel in the night
So I ghost the waters, waiting on the dawn's first light

And every morning, I watch the sun peak over the horizon in the East
My love is the sunlight, I am the ocean reflecting every color that she weaves

Forever yours
Sincerely
Me

Sweet Lorraine
Well I returned, and you couldn't stay- but don't you harbor your Lament
Through all my labor, you've been the anchor in me
Love is never a regret

And every morning, I'll watch the sun peak over the horizon in the east
My love is the sunlight, I'll be the ocean, reflecting every color that she weaves

Forever yours
Oh Forever yours
Sincerely
Me
