Cruel Sea

[Verse 1]
Goodbye, Maire, I am gone to sea
Just one more trip this season's all I need
Oh dear Martin, please don't go
I have a feeling deep down in my bones
His ship set sail with the morning tide
As Maire waved a chill ran down her spine

[Chorus]
Oh my darling (Oh my darling)
What have you done? (What have you done?)
The cruel sea has taken (The cruel sea)
The one I love

[Verse 2]
The pressure falling on his first week gone
Maire knew she'd been right all along
Through shrieking wind she heard her Martin's voice whisper
"I am lost sweet Maire, but always yours"
The waves they thundered down that rocky shore
Maire threw herself into the storm

[Chorus]
Oh my darling (Oh my darling)
What have you done? (What have you done?)
The cruel sea has taken (The cruel sea)
The one I love
(Oh my darling, what have you done?)
(The cruel sea)

[Verse 3]
Just off the Azores Martin takes the helm
The storm has passed and now he's headed home again

[Chorus]
Oh my darling (Oh my darling)
What have you done? (What have you done?)
The cruel sea has taken (The cruel sea)
The one I love
Oh my darling (Oh my darling)
What have you done? (What have you done?)
The cruel sea has taken (The cruel sea)
The one I love
