Her Love Is Strong
Upon the eerie shores of night
As waves come crashing on the sand
She stands there waiting, hoping, strong
For her one true love, her seafaring man
With shawl there wrapped around her tight
With eyes so staring, wandering the sea
She prays he return to her and her heart
For his was love, so meant to be
She’ll wait there for an eternity
For an eternity
As breaths so time her nightly wait
She whispers softly on the breeze
With hopes he’ll come, with open arms
When he hears her voice on the sea
Alas, she waits, her love is strong
For him, whose mistress is the sea
She’ll stand to greet him upon return
Upon the shore is where she’ll be
She’ll wait there for an eternity
For an eternity
