Bring Him Back Lyrics
My love’s ship sails the sea
Oh Lord, bring him back to me
I stand on the shore
As the cruel sea roars
How long must I wait?
Is this to be my fate?
To look out into the night
And shiver with cold fright

I think I am to blame
As I stand in wind and rain
But to sail the seas
Set his spirit free
He could not stay home
He said he had to roam
Out there are no walls or bars
Just sea and sky and stars

Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me
Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me

My head starts to spin
As the ship comes in
I stand on the rocks
Or go to the docks
I search here and there
No one seems to care
He’s so far away from home
And I am all alone

The seagull flies above
Tell me have you seen my love?
Did you pass his ship?
Or hear his sweet lips?
We had planned to Wed
His roses are now dead
I feel his voice on the breeze
It brings me to my knees

Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me
Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me

He would not say ‘good-bye’
Or once turn to see me cry
He said he’d return
How my spirit burns
I gave him my soul
Oh return and make me whole
Like a knife cuts the night
The lighthouse shines its light

Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me
Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me
Bring him back
Oh bring him back to me
From the lonely sea
Bring my love to me
