Sacred Heart (a Sailor's Drunken Eulogy) Lyrics

the minute the ship docked i saw your face, in the window
you stood like a girl i've always known, always want to
and i fell back in love with you again, didn't want to
and i forgot the things i thought that i would say, didn't have to

and to your left and right there stood my son, and my daughter
but smiling back behind you stood the sum, for departure
so here i stand a man without a plan, or a virtue
i can either spend my life out here at sea, or be a murderer

I'm not ready to forgive you
I'm not ready to forget you
