My Lover's Gone

My lover's gone his boots no longer by my door he left at dawn and as I slept I felt him go Returns no more I will not watch the ocean My lover's gone no earthly ships will ever bring him home again bring him home again My lover's gone I know that kiss will be my last no more his song the tune upon his lips has passed I sing alone while I watch the ocean My lover's gone no earthly ships will ever bring him home again bring him home again
