A lovers' plea
has been lost at sea
Oh see, can you see it?
his words float as skies and waves
ship wreck, shaky breath
You turn your head away to let those tears fall
his last words all around us
all dedicated to his lovers heart
A lock of hair
in a pouch threadbare
Oh child, It matches your
he had kissed it in his last hour
time had ticked
as the truth had hit
he was leaving
he left a bitter smile at his parting
He wanted to give a ring
to place it on your finger
a ring of the purest gold and silver
but he wanted to give it quicker
A lovers tale
of hardships in vain
all he wanted was coin
to buy a ring and make you his
And now he's gone
and thrown it all
for a ring you would've gotten anyways
but it won't be his fingers placing it
a different hand a similar ring
a sadder heart, a sadder smile
a broken heart whispering curses
to a sleeping heart lost at sea
