I took to the sea, looking for love,
looking for me.
She was a maid fair, waving alone,
next to the pier
But I sailed a course through the north
'cross the firth of forth.

I searched the world o'er, only to find,
I was alone.
She's still the maid fair, I had looked for,
when I left home.
So I sailed a course from the north,
'cross the firth of forth.

And she gives, she needs, she was, she does.
And she is, she feels, she wants, she loves.

I took to the sea, looking for love,
looking for me.
She is the maid fair, standing with me,
next to the pier.
Never again shall I sail north,
'cross the firth of forth.
