I AM waiting to send you a song, love, From over the sea, But the way, Oh the way is so long, love, Between you and me, All the music would die, In the waves and the sky, Before it reached thee. I am wanting to tell you my love, love, But you will forget How you lifted your sweet eyes above, love, How their lashes were wet When you wished me good-bye, While the stars filled the sky, And my sad sails were set. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EPILOGUE TO DRAMATIS PERSONAE by ROBERT BROWNING ANTIQUITY OF FREEDOM by WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT THE SONG OF A HEATHEN by RICHARD WATSON GILDER ASTROPHEL AND STELLA: 7 by PHILIP SIDNEY THE BOUNDARIES OF APPRECIATION by FRANKLIN PIERCE ADAMS WOMEN'S WAR THOUGHTS by MARY HUNTER AUSTIN A NEW PILGRIMAGE: 18 by WILFRID SCAWEN BLUNT INAUGURATION SONNET: ERNEST FOX NICHOLS by HARRY RANDOLPH BLYTHE |
