Something I never knew,
In silence I'd hear you,
And a boat lies waiting.
Still your clouds all flaming,
That old-time easy feeling.
What I lost was an ocean,
Now I'm drifting through without you
In this sad barcarolle.
What I lost was an ocean,
And I'm rolling right behind you
In this sad barcarolle.
It rocks you like a cradle,
It rocks you to the core,
You'll sleep like a baby
As it knocks at Death's door.
