Bluegirls come in every size, some are wise and some otherwise
They got pretty blue eyes, for an hour a man may change
For an hour her face looks strange, looks strange, looks strange
Marching to the promised land
Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand
Pulls you down on your knees, while you're down a pool appears
The face in the water looks up, and she shakes her head as if to say
That it's the last time you'll look like today
(add )
Sail away, away, ripples never come back
Gone to the other side, sail away, away
The face that launched a thousand ships
Is sinking fast that happens you know
The water gets below, seems not very long ago
Lovelier she was than any that I know
Angels never know it's time, to close the book and gracefully decline
The song has found a tale, my what a jealous pool is she
The face in the water looks up, she shakes her head as if to say
That the bluegirls have all gone away
(add )
Sail away, away, ripples never come back
They've gone to the other side
(add )
Look into the pool, ripples never come back
Dive to the bottom and go to the top, to see where they have gone
(add )
Oh they've gone to the other side, ripples never come back
Sail away, away
(add )
Sail away, away, ripples never come back
