Lyrics:
The sailor’s wife, alone one night In slumber as she bathes She dreams of ships her sailor’s lip Against the ocean waves The sailor’s wife was pale and white Beauty near divine Oh how the sea has stolen thee She drinks, she waits, she cries Life is but a dream The sailor knows that waves will grow When all is not content The sky grows dark, a lightening spark A message must be sent He shouts down to the sorry crew The sky’s no longer blue A storm is come to claim someone So pray it is not you Life is but a dream The sailor’s wife had bare a life Before she slipped and fell Her back was broke, and as she soaks She cannot cry for help The sailor clings to ropes and things He won’t survive for long Then crashing down upon his crown A final, parting song Both of them sinking as death pulls the plug One in the ocean and one in the tub The water’s running The storm is coming The sailor is drowning, drowning Life is but a dream
