Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
It's better my darling, I promise you this
The next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
Will you wait for me darling, I need to know
Well, you know I'm a sailor, tomorrow we sail
It's a hard way of living, but I know it well
And if I surrender my life to the sea
You can marry another, it's alright with me
Though we won't be together again 'til the spring
Just imagine the treasures I'll bring
Come lay with me, stay with me, soon I'll be gone
But I will remember you all winter long
And when I return to the one that I miss
Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
The sweeter the kiss
When the mornings are warm and the valleys are green
I'll come back from wherever I've been
Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
It's better my darling, I promise you this
But next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
We will give up the ocean forever, I know
Forever I know.
