Lynnwood (For Jesse)
The ship was due back in the harbor
September the 23rd
It never arrived in the harbor
But darling, you still have my word
I'll wait for you days upon days, my dear
No matter what the others may think
I'll sit here and wait for you, darling
I'll be having a cool, lovely drink
A fisherman found all the wreckage
The ship and the cargo within
But I keep up hope you'll still join me
Though I know neither of us can swim
I'll wait for you days upon days, my dear
No matter what the others may think
I'll sit here and wait for you, darling
I'll be having a cool, lovely drink
When they turned all their cannons upon us
We never stood one half a chance
But when I sank down to the bottom
I thought of your coy evening glance
As the breath left my body like lightning
As it did with the rest of the crew
I might have found all of it frightening
But I knew you would wait for me too
I'll wait for you years upon years, my dear
No matter what the others may think
I'll sit here and wait for you, darling
I'll be having a cool, lovely drink
September the 23rd
It never arrived in the harbor
But darling, you still have my word
I'll wait for you days upon days, my dear
No matter what the others may think
I'll sit here and wait for you, darling
I'll be having a cool, lovely drink
A fisherman found all the wreckage
The ship and the cargo within
But I keep up hope you'll still join me
Though I know neither of us can swim
I'll wait for you days upon days, my dear
No matter what the others may think
I'll sit here and wait for you, darling
I'll be having a cool, lovely drink
When they turned all their cannons upon us
We never stood one half a chance
But when I sank down to the bottom
I thought of your coy evening glance
As the breath left my body like lightning
As it did with the rest of the crew
I might have found all of it frightening
But I knew you would wait for me too
I'll wait for you years upon years, my dear
No matter what the others may think
I'll sit here and wait for you, darling
I'll be having a cool, lovely drink
