Hear, o gods, my desperate plea
To see my love beside me
Sunk below the mortal sea
Her anchor weighs upon me
Fasten her tether unto me
That she may rise to sail free
Don’t look back
Close enough that light we can see
My doubt betrays the better of me
A glance to the stern is all it would be
That anguished shade shall haunt me
Ever on
Calm
Seas
Winds a-lee
But now the squall’s upon us
We’re foundering
Drowning
Don’t look back
