Lyrics
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
Verse 1:
She stands behind the bar, pouring dreams in every glass,
With a smile that hides the pain, as the lonely hours pass.
Sailors come and go, with tales of love so wild,
They say she’d make a perfect wife, if only she’d beguile.
Chorus:
But there’s one she can’t forget,
The sailor who stole her heart,
(a-a-a-h...)
Left her with a golden chain, and then they had to part.
He loved the ocean more, than the love she had to give,
Now she holds that chain so tight, in memories she’ll live.
Verse 2:
They tell her she’s a beauty, with eyes that light the night,
She listens with a distant gaze, lost in the fading light.
She remembers when he whispered, “You’re the only one for me,”
(you're a fine girl)
But the waves called out his name, and he sailed across the sea.
Chorus:
But there’s one she can’t forget,
The sailor who stole her heart,
(a-a-a-h...)
Left her with a golden chain, and then they had to part.
He loved the ocean more, than the love she had to give,
Now she holds that chain so tight, in memories she’ll live.
Bridge:
She wears that chain around her neck, a token of his vow,
But she knows deep in her soul, he’s with the sea somehow.
She’ll keep on serving drinks, in this port where dreams collide,
Waiting for the day he’ll come back, and take her for a ride.
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
Chorus:
But there’s one she can’t forget,
The sailor who stole her heart,
(a-a-a-h...)
Left her with a golden chain, and then they had to part.
He loved the ocean more, than the love she had to give,
Now she holds that chain so tight, in memories she’ll live.
Outro:
In the quiet of the night, when the bar is finally still,
She whispers to that chain, with a love that time can’t kill.
But deep down she knows the truth, he’s where he’s meant to be,
While she’s anchored to the shore, dreaming of the sea.
(doo-doo-doo-doo)
