1. Let me sail to the depths of your soul,

let me anchor as near as I can be to your shore,

Em

and the season of loving has long awaited me.

2. Tides and waves have kept me, kept me going,

G D C

I‘m longing for the calm, I‘m heading for the pastures.

Em C G Em

I can see on your dry land, let the sea that once did take me

bring me back safe to your door,

C D G

for I long to touch the dry land of your shore.
