Darling you know I love you
I love you
Oh oo oh oo oh
I'll stay if you ask me to
Ask me to
Oh oo oh oo oh
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
Ooooo
Darling you know I love you
I love you
Oh oo oh oo oh
I'll stay if you ask me to
Ask me to
Oh oo oh oh
Standin' there looking so sweet
Tell me that I'm braver than I think
The steep waves breaking were the only sound
Reminding me that we're not aground
You know that I will never forget
The days we spent anchored at
Long boat pa**, Long boat pa**
Let me through is all I ask
Long boat pa**, Long boat pa**
Let me through is all I ask
Please let me through
We must return to sea
We must make due
The waves crash mercilessly
