LOVING HIM TRULY IS HARD WHEN HE IS AWAY
IT’S BEING ALONE WITH NOTHING TO HOLD
IT’S BEING YOUNG, BUT FEELING SO OLD
IT’S HAVING HIM WHISPER HIS LOVE FOR YOU
IT’S WHISPERING BACK YOU LOVE HIM TOO
THERE COMES A KISS & A PROMISE FOR MORE
AS HIS SHIP SLOWLY GLIDES AWAY FROM THE SHORE
RELUCTANTTLY, PAINFULLY, LETTING HER GO
WHILE YOUR INSIDE ARE DYING FROM WANTING HIM SO
WATCHING HIM LEAVE WITH EYES FULL OF TEARS
STANDING ALONE WITH YOUR HOPES, DREAMS & FEARS
IT’S SENDING A LETTER WITH THE STAMP UPSIDE DOWN
TO A FAR AWAY LOVE IN A FAR AWAY TOWN.
IT’S GOING TO TEMPLE TO KNEEL & PRAY
AND REALLY MEANING THE THINGS YOU SAY
BEING IN LOVE WILL FOSTER YOUR DREAMS
OF THAT FAR AWAY SAILOR YOUR MIND FAIRLY BEAMS.
DAYS GO OFF & NO MAIL FOR A SPELL.
YOU WAIT FOR SOME WORD TO HEAR THAT HE’S WELL
THEN A LETTER ARRIVES, AND YOU ARE GIVEN IN
TO OPEN HIS LETTER & READ IT WITH A GRIN
YES, HE IS WELL & MISSES YOU SO
AND FILLED WITH THE LOVE YOU WANTED TO KNOW
WEEKS ARE LIKE MONTHS, AND MONTHS ARE LIKE YEARS
YOU WAIT FOR THE DAY WHEN YOU’LL HAVE NO MORE FEARS
DAYS GO BY SLOWLY , HOW MANY HAVE PASSED
THEN SUDDENLY YOU REALIZE IT’S HERE AT LAST
YES, LOVING A SAILOR BITTERNESS AND TEARS
LONLINESS, SADNESS & DESPONDANT YEARS
LOVING A SAILOR IS NO FUN
BUT IT’S WORTH THE PRICE WHEN THE BATTLE IS WON
AND REMEMBER HE IS THINKING OF YOU EVERYDAY
HE’S SAD & HE’S LONELY WHILE SO FAR AWAY
SO LOVE HIM & MISS HIM & HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH
BE STRONG & HAVE FAITH, WIPE THAT TEARS FTROM YOUR EYES
YOUR MAN’S A SEAFARER, LIKE THAT OLD ANCIENT TRADER
IT’S A HIGH PRICE YOU PAY FOR LOVING A SEAFARER.
