[Verse 1]
As a girl I watched the sailing ships
Like white birds on the sea
Their sails were wings that rode the wind
My heart longed to be free
I saw you standing by the sea
The beach was dark as death
But your hand was warm against my face
Your kiss was my life's breath
[Chorus]
And loving you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea
Put your arms around me darling
Now and rescue me
And loving you's like drowning and I feel so far from home
Put your arms around me
And I'll never sail alone
[Verse 2]
You never said you'd stay with me
I never tied your hands
The way some frightened women do to keep their love on land
Where they can walk dry-footed
And never fear the tide
Or the moon upon the water
In their lover's arms they hide
As a girl I watched the sailing ships
Like white birds on the sea
Their sails were wings that rode the wind
My heart longed to be free
I saw you standing by the sea
The beach was dark as death
But your hand was warm against my face
Your kiss was my life's breath
[Chorus]
And loving you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea
Put your arms around me darling
Now and rescue me
And loving you's like drowning and I feel so far from home
Put your arms around me
And I'll never sail alone
[Verse 2]
You never said you'd stay with me
I never tied your hands
The way some frightened women do to keep their love on land
Where they can walk dry-footed
And never fear the tide
Or the moon upon the water
In their lover's arms they hide
