Come here softly, sit by my side
Let your presence be my tender guide
Let your voice drone over the rushing tide
Let your touch bring out the feelings I cannot hide

Come here softly, take my warm embrace
though I cannot see your lovely face
though I can only hear empty space
let me have my one last taste

Of your laugh that I once enjoyed
Of your hand I always held
Of your stories that were endless
Of your presence full of life

By the sea now I see a light
my darling baby, I go tonight
Do not mourn me for all is right
You have loved me with all your might
