lyrics

My baby, my baby went over the sea
Oh, why cant you bring back my baby to me?
We were warm with each other in the chilled air of night
We used to hold on to each other until the sun touched the sky
Until she started waking up, said "Ive been having these dreams.
That I'm gone far away and that I'm watching you grieve."
I told her "Don't worry baby. I'm here til' death do us part.
You know our souls and our bodies are attached at the heart."

My baby, my baby went over the sea
Oh, why can't you bring back my baby to me?
She changed, yeah, she changed
and the thoughts drove her wild
When I held her through darkness I'd have to hold her like a child
Instead of watching the sunrise
She'd walk alone to the beach
and she'd scream and she'd cry for the land across the sea

My baby, My baby how could you do this to me?
You gave all of my love to the land across the sea
and the last thing she told me as she kissed me goodbye
"I could kiss you forever and watch the heart in your eyes.
You showed me life and it's beauty but if I dont do this
for me...
I will never feel whole and you will never be free."

She put one foot into the water
and then she was far passed the tide
She put one arm in front of the other
and swam with all of her might
and I watched her disappear
and I watched the sun touch the sky
Her love for the sea was how my lover did die

My baby, My baby went over the sea
My baby she told me that's where she would be
