On a winter morning He sailed out with the promise To return with splendid gifts from distant lands It was twenty years ago But she still can feel the caress of his hands Night after night When at the rocks the moon is bright She walks the beach alone Out on the sea Far in the distance there must be A ship on its way home Closer is the moment Her heart is beating faster Sometimes he comes to visit in her dreams Love can turn into agony And she doesn't want to live for memories anymore (So she will sail!)
