A Sailor Stuck on Land

I've never been a man to fall in love.

But when I saw her, out from sea,

I did not know if she be angel or goddess.

Her smile brought me to land in the winter.

But when I saw her, out from sea,

It took till autumn's leaves to see.

Her smile brought me to land in the winter.

Because she was the hell spawn of the devil's seed.

It took till autumn's leaves to see.

Her bewitching had trapped me.

Because she was the hell spawn of the devil's seed,

Who gave birth to the devil who was inside me.

Her bewitching had trapped me.

She was no angel or goddess, but just a woman,

Who gave birth to the devil who was inside me.

I've been a man to fall in love.
