Across Such Stormy Waters

Across a pool of liquid glass

I know my sailor sails the sea

He, my man, and I, his lass,

I wait for him to come to me

Across a pool of liquid glass.

Across that distant rolling dune

I know my sailor thinks of me

His briny heart, it sings the tune

Of our distant lover's-song

Across that distant rolling dune.

Across a mirror of shining sun

I know my sailor feels the chill

Regardless of the Warming One,

There's a tempest, cold and shrill

Across a mirror of shining sun.

Across the waves of ocean

My heart pines for my man

His ship, forever in motion,

Leaves me far away on land

Across the waves of ocean. 

Across such stormy waters

My heart shall brave the gale.

The only children left are daughters;

The race of sailors soon will fail

Across such stormy waters.

Across a pool of liquid glass

I know my sailor thinks of me

He, my man, and I, his lass,

I wait for him to come to me

Across a pool of liquid glass.
