I'm a sailor on this dark and dreadful sea
And I need courage just the same as you need me
And I've been fishing for a cup of sympathy
But I keep getting waves that just won't let me be
And I'm gonna be late getting home tonight
If the tide won't come in
And I'll be tired from the journey
But I'll be seeing you again
Thank God for you and me and the deep, deep blue sea
Oh, it ain't been the same since she hit up on the rock
But I still sail her even though she has had a knock
When I look out from the middle of the sea
I still dream the dreams I dream of you and me
And I'm gonna be late getting home tonight
If the tide won't come in
And I'll be tired from the journey
But I'll be seeing you again
Thank God for you and me and the deep, deep blue sea
Call me homeward when it's time for me to leave
And I'll be leaving thinking of who I'm gonna see
When I'm with you, we will open up the sail
'Cause when I'm with you, I just know I'll never bail
And I'm gonna be late getting home tonight
If the tide won't come in
And I'll be tired from the journey
But I'll be seeing you again
Thank God for you and me and the deep, deep blue sea
