ivor gurney - dreams of the sea lyrics

Loading...

i know not why i yearn for thee again
to sail once more upon thy fickle flood;
i’ll hear thy waves wash under my death_bed
thy salt is lodged forever in my blood

yet i have seen thee lash the vessel’s sides
in fury, with thy many tailèd whip;
and i have seen thee, too, like galilee
when jesus walked in peace to simon’s ship

and i have seen thy gentle breeze as soft
as summer’s, when it makes the cornfields run;
and i have seen thy rude and l_sty gale
make ships show half their bellies to the sun

thou knowest the way to tame the wildest life
thou knowest the way to bend the great and proud:
i think of that armada whose puffed sails
greedy and large, came swallowing every cloud

but i have seen the sea_boy, young and drowned
lying on shore and by thy cruel hand
a seaweed beard was on his tender chin
his heaven_blue eyes were filled with common sand

and yet, for all, i yearn for thee again
to sail once more upon thy fickle flood:
i’ll hear thy waves wash under my death_bed
thy salt is lodged forever in my blood
