We run along easy at
periscope depth
Sun dappling through clear water
So went the dream of
the drowned submariner
Far away from the slaughter
Your hair is a strawflower
that sings in the sun
My darling
My beautiful daughter
So went the dream of
the drowned submariner
Cast away on the water
From down in the vault
Down in the grave
Reaching up to the light
on the waves
So she did run to him
over the grass
She fell in his arms
and he caught her
So went the dream of
the drowned submariner
Far away on the water
Far away on the water
