Asleep in the Deep

1. Stormy the night and the waves roll high, Bravely the ship doth ride;
Hark! while the light-house bell's solemn cry Rings o'er the sullen tide
There on the deck see two lovers stand, Heart to heart-beating and hand in hand, Tho'
death be near, she knows no fear, While at her side is one of all most dear.
2. What of the storm when the night is o'er? There is no trace or sign!
Save where the wreckage hath strewn the shore, Peaceful the sun doth shine
But when the wild raging storm did cease, Under the billows two hearts found peace, No
more to part, no more of pain, The bell may now toll its warning in vain.
Loudly the bell in the old tower rings,
Bidding us list to the warning it brings
Sailor, take care! Sailor, take care!
Danger ls near thee, Beware! Beware
Beware! Beware!
Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep, So beware! beware!
Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep, So beware! beware!
