I saw two lovers last night,
Down where the ships put to sea.
One was the image of you,
The other was so like me.
I saw two lovers last night,
While the sea music played.
Music that told of farewell,
But I was not afraid
Still I can't erase the memory
Of their kiss and last goodbye.
A ship on the far horizon,
That last long haunting cry.
So tell me now my love:
These two that said goodbye,
Say that it just couldn't be,
No it never could be,
The ghosts of you and I.
