Rosy's Realm

While there on the beach
Not having to teach
What Rosy knew so well
When the night hit the sky
And the waves, stood on high
She said "Don't kiss and tell"

Not a sailor you see
Rough seas frightened me
With Rosy at the helm
Made my ship ran a muck
For my rudder got stuck
Heading for Rosy's realm

The waves tossed and turned
With a passion that burned
As I sunk in the sand by the sea
With a small wave good bye
I saw in her eye, 
She'd never returned here to me

You might think I was sad 
Or maybe just mad
For loving and leaving me so
But Now,  I'm a sailor, 
Looking to Hail her
In every port that I go
