The Onliest

He sailed the seas to Normandy
He had the maps laid out
He had a boat and had a sail
"Jack's Girl" on his arm
But no one sees the stars so bright
No one swims alone at night
I'm missin' him like a heart attack
And Neptune won't bring him back
He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me
He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me
Deepness of the waving tide

All the sea is saying goodbye
And the moon dips aloof at four
The sea doesn't keep score

He watches over me the onliest

He watches over me
He watches over me the onliest
He watches over me
Sweetness of the salty wind
Depth of love when it just begins

A pint for me and one for you
Say a toast with all who knew
