[Verse 1]
The ebb and flow of the tide
Will carry me forth into your arms
And though I'll miss you tonight
The thought of your love keeps me warm

[Pre-Chorus]
As the moon comes out
Over the water

[Chorus]
Precious and too sweet
I shall pray love your soul to keep
The river sleeping sound
I shall be dreaming deep of you

[Post-Chorus]
Soul do keep thee
Rife and weepy
Calling out to you

[Verse 2]
The dip and roar of the crowd
Will dizzy me forth into your arms
And if we pass it all around
We'll be of the same point of view
[Pre-Chorus]
As the world spins 'round
And here ever after

[Chorus]
Precious and too sweet
I shall pray love your soul to keep
And I lay me gently down
I shall be dreaming deep of you

On a bed of silver sand
I'll take you lightly by the hand
And we'll dance on by the moon
I shall be dreaming deep of you

[Post-Chorus]
Shattered, dreamy
Calm and sweetly
Fool enough for two

[Bridge]

[Coda]
(Ooh)
When the stars play hide and seek
I shall be dreaming deep of you
(I shall be dreaming)
Precious and too sweet
I shall pray love your soul to keep
(I shall be praying)
On a bed of silver sand
I'll take you lightly by the hand
(I shall be dreaming)
And we'll dance on by the moon
I shall be dreaming deep of you
(I shall be praying)

Precious and too sweet
I shall pray love your soul to keep
