lyrics

Paloma, paloma, mourning dove
Sing your song for me, for my love, lost at sea
Out in the endless blue
Teach me your melody so I can sing with you

Paloma, paloma, was it yesterday
We sat on the balcony
Watching the palm trees sway in the wind
While the white waves battered the shore
I begged him not to go off in search of the end of the world

My lonely mother, she warned me
Never give your heart to a man who’s married to the sea
They’re fine for drinking and dancing and kissing on the shore
But a man who’s wed to the water is never truly yours

Paloma, paloma, mourning dove
Sing your song for me, for my love, gone for good
And I’d run if I just knew where
I’d lock him up tight in a prison made of my skin and my hair

My lonely mother, she warned me
Never give your heart to a man who’s married to the sea
They’re fine for drinking and dancing and kissing on the shore
But a man who’s wed to the water might
Give you sons and give you daughters and
Pleasure and passion and laughter and action and more
But he’s never truly yours
