We frolicked in the sea and laughing waves
You gave yourself to me in waters deep
The tides they turned as sweetly wore our days
But now the time has come for me to sleep

If sleep I must then fondly I shall dream
And dreaming go to places in your heart
To dwell a while beside a votive stream
And linger there before I must depart

But later I’ll withdraw and watch you pine
And smiling as another makes a toast
Then come to you in draughts of cheap red wine
And know we shared the best of any boast
 
When all is well and you in comfort rest
I’ll guide you home to be with Heaven’s blest
