Released August 3, 2018
written by Honeymoon Bridge

lyrics

i watch from the show for her white sails
salt breeze and oceans roar for her white sails
dry eyes stoney heart i scan the sea
for the sails of the golden ship coming for me

day by day by day by day i wait and prayer
they shake their heads and turn to say she drifts away
dry eyes stoney heart i scan the sea
for the sails of the fairest ship coming for me

she was wrecked long ago oh the raging sea
lost all men and cargo no mercy
dry eyes stoney heart i scan the sea
oh the bonniest sailor promised to return to me

im still up here alone birds fly by
they etched my name in stone neath the starry sky
when the moonlight hits the water i see his smile
and the promise of his dark eyes holding me tight
