The love the way the sun shines.

[alasanon]

the shipwreck

your path leads you to the sea, my love
and i'll not be going with you
we call each other one more name
and kiss our tears goodbye
you'll shoulder up your traveling sack
i'll saddle up my pony
together we'll make our separate ways
i'll be long-gone by morning
and once i'm far and out of sight
the sea-dog's legs you wear
will tremble a little to think of me
while sun-haloes shine in your hair
the salt-stained hull, the whipping winds
the embers of a life i knew
the memory of being stunned in your arms
is all i have left of you
your crushed-hope eyes, your velvet charms
and the sky above, still blue
your path leads you to the sea, my love
and i'll wait no more for you.
