Her Bright Smile Haunts Me Still

It's been a year since last we met
And we may never meet again
I have struggled to forget
But the struggle was in vain

For her voice lives on the breeze
And her spirit comes at will
In the midnight on the sea
Her bright smile haunts me still
In the midnight on the sea
Her bright smile haunts me still

I have sailed a falling sky
I have charted hazardous path
I have seen a storm arise
Like a giant in his wrath

Every danger I have known
That a reckless life can fill
Though her presence now has flown
Her bright smile haunts me still
Though her presence now has flown
Her bright smile haunts me still

At the first weak dawn of light
As I gaze upon the deep
Though her form still greets my sight
While the stars their vigils keep

While I close my aching eye
Sweet dreams my memory fills
And when sleep from I arise
Her bright smile haunts me still
And when sleep from I arise
Her bright smile haunts me still
