Darling you know I love you, I love you, I'll stay if you ask me to We spent the night at long boat key It drained the confidence out of me The littered shoals wait to ensnare Oh, sailor you had better beware
Darling you know I love you, I love you, I'll stay if you ask me to Standing there looking so sweet, you Tell me that I'm braver than I think
The steep waves breaking the only sound Reminding me we're not aground You know that I will never forget The days we spent anchored at Long Boat Pass, Long Boat Pass Let me through is all I ask Please let me through We must return to sea We must make do Though the waves crash mercilessly
