lyrics

As I lie and watch the moon
On the lonely sea,
Watch it tug the lonely tide
Like a comforter over me,
The still and faceless moon
Fills the beach tonight
With only a ghost of day,
All shadow gray,
and moonbeam white.
And you lie alone tonight,
As alone as I;
Lonely girl in your lonely flat,
well, that's where it's at,
So hush your lonely cry.

How can I come to you,
put out the moon,
send back the tide?
The night has gone so gray,
I'd lose the way, and it's dark inside.
No, I must lie alone,
Till it comes for me;
Till it takes the sky,
the sand,
the moon,
and the lonely sea.

And the lonely sea . . .
