Lovely Lady of the Island
My lovely lady of the island
living by the restless sea
what secret longing in your heart
stirreth with the foam and the breeze
and the wind on the lea
My lovely lady of the island
living by the restless sea
what visions of a love so free
pass before your eyes
with sunset colors of the sky
My lovely lady of the island
living by the restless sea
when nights are warm and calm the waves
what sweet dream of deep desire
rises in your heart with glee
My lovely lady of the island
living by the restless sea
wipe that bright tear from your eye
your love's waiting just for you
far beyond the misty sea
My lovely lady of the island
fear not the restless sea
no distance can your true love hold
the sea cannot his love destroy
your true love's coming just for you
from shores of golden sunlight true
with you forever more to stay.
