A Memory Lost at Sea

I wait in the rain that falls on the pier
everyone’s here to watch the ships come in from the fog
I’m nervous and cold
it’s been so long since they’ve been home
what happened to my baby?
where has my baby gone?
who’ll keep me safe from harm and warm?
I’m soaked to the skin and everyone’s gone home with their friends
and I’m all alone in the cold, shaking my bones
nobody knows where is my boy
what happened to my baby?
where has my baby gone?
who’ll keep me safe from harm and warm?
someone knew me
they’re gone now
what happened to my baby?
where has my baby gone?
who’ll keep me safe from harm and warm?
what happened to my baby?
where has my baby gone?
who’ll keep me safe from harm and warm?
