Farewell goodbye my darling...

Farewell goodbye my darling...
The world is now turning...
And the tide has out reached
Any shore I can still trace
Without a beating heart
Or ageing senile mind!

Farewell goodbye my darling...
Farewell my life goodbye my darling...
Oh the hour is near - I must go'
Back over the white scrolling foam
And sink like an island
Within the footprints of you and me
Skinny dipping still in my soul

Oh farewell goodbye my darling...
The world is now turning...
Like an old schooner in the wind
With seven sails seven oceans
To sail... to sail... to sail...
Without a scent of you - crosswind
My darling... my wife... my life...

Oh farewell goodbye my darling...
Farewell and goodbye my darling...
I'm going now three sheets to the wind
i'm going to drink and drown in an ocean
Without you my love,
Without you my love, without you...
Without you my love, without you...
My turtle dove!

It’s kind of a sad sea shanty.

How do I say this? It was really written as a sad song… no one in mind I should of made that clear at the start. Thank you for your review Sami.

There is LIFE.. after death
And I struggle to keep it
Every day..

I don't drink .. but do other things
To keep me from jumping
Over that edge ..
Into that early grave..

This has rhythm .. but sings no song of joy ..

I am sorry for your loss. ♥.
