lyrics

if i were a sailor upon the green bay
i'd love you and lose you and find you again
beneath the queen's waters, lucid and lorn
swallowed and stolen, tempest-tossed and torn.

if i were a sailor and sailed for my pay
i'd find you drowning as i wound my way
i'd throw you an anchor to hold and to ride
to hitch you to home and to tie you in tide.

if i were a sailor that looks to the dawn
i'd pray for your favor before i set on
i'd drift you a tribute of garland and psalm
to lighten your labors and hallow your halls.
