G                 D                        
  On the floating, ship-less oceans.
C             Em
  I did all my best to smile.
G                  D
  Till your singing eyes and fingers.
C               Em
  Drew me loving to your isle.

G                F          C
  And you sang, "Sail to me, sail to me.
        G
  Let me enfold you”.
Em          D
  Here I am, here I am.
             C    G
  Waiting to hold you.

G            D
  Did I dream you dreamed about me?
C              Em
  Were you here when I was full sail?
G               D
  Now my foolish boat is leaning.
C                Em
  Broken lovelorn on your rocks.

G              F               C
  For you sang, "Touch me not.  Touch me not. 
           G
  Come back tomorrow”.
Em             D
  Ohh my heart, ohh my heart.
            C    G
  Shies from the sorrow.

G               D
  I'm as puzzled as the oyster.
C                Em
  I'm as troubled as the tide.
G               D
  Should I stand amid the breakers?
C                    Em
  Or shall I lie with death, my bride?

G             F            C
  Hear me sing “Swim to me, swim to me.
        G
  Let me enfold you”.
Em          D
  Here I am, here I am.
            C     G
  Waiting to hold you.
