Friends

Grey the sea she is tonight, softly grey by candlelight.

The shrimper’s masts reaching for the sky, the twilight complete, a gull flies by.

My thoughts are of you, so peaceful and dear, my love for you undying and clear.

Stay with me tonight my love, soft hair shinning like the moon above.

I wish you joy and hope and cheer, all these things to you my dear.
