Re-upload from our debut full-length album, "It's Not the Coat Makes the Gentleman" (2007).

lyrics

’Tis years since last we met,
And we may not meet again;
I have struggled to forget,
But the struggle was in vain;
For her voice lives on the breeze,
And her spirit comes at will;
In the midnight, on the seas,
Her bright smile haunts me still.
For her voice lives on the breeze,
And her spirit comes at will;
In the midnight, on the seas,
Her bright smile haunts me still.
At the first sweet dawn of light,
When I gaze upon the deep,
Her form still greets my sight,
While the stars their vigils keep;
When I close mine aching eyes,
Sweet dreams my senses fill;
And from sleep when I arise,
Her bright smile haunts me still.
When I close mine aching eyes,
Sweet dreams my senses fill,
And from sleep when I arise,
Her bright smile haunts me still.
I’ve sail’d ‘neath alien skies,
I have trod the desert path,
I have seen the storm arise,
Like a giant in his wrath;
Ev’ry danger I have known,
That a reckless life can fill;
Yet her presence is not flown,
Her bright smile haunts me still.
Ev’ry danger I have known,
That a reckless life can fill;
Yet her presence is not flown,
Her bright smile haunts me still.
