[Verse 1]
I'll take all my sorrows to the sea
Let the waves wash over my distress
Sweep out every molecule of thee
Traces of the dearest and the best
Letters that I kept
The pillow where you slept beside me
Burn them all to ashes in the fire
Love of mine
Forever I'll be with my heart's desire
Out there on thе cold salt sea

[Bridge]
William Coates, he nеver meant no harm
His boat was broke, too much wood by the stern
In the harbor they threw roses on the swell
As the grim bell rang the knell

[Verse 2]
Left the world behind you but I'll find you
Your name is written somewhere on the deep
Hypnotize me of the night I met you
Now I'll swim forever in my sleep
The garden where we talked
The pathway where you walked beside me
Where you go I'll follow like a slave
Love of mine
My heart will be as restless as the waves
The waves out on the cold salt sea
