where have you gone my only my own how far have you flown from me the work of our hands built a beautiful ship how could i begrudge you the sea alone alone my only my own when will you return to me alone alone my only my own when will you return to me where have you gone my only my own what far away sights have you seen has the world become real has your home become small has your future eclipsed where you ve been alone alone my only my own when will you return to me alone alone my only my own when will you return to me and when you return my only my own bring me back tales of the sea bring me pockets of gold or a shirt full of holes it ll make little difference to me alone alone my only my own when will you return to me alone alone my only my own when will you return to me when will you return to me when will you return to me
