(Monkees TV Show 1968)

Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

And you sang

Sail to me, sail to me

Let me enfold you

Here I am, here I am

Waiting to hold you

Did I dream you dreamed about me ?

Were you hare when I was fox ?

Now my foolish boat is leaning

Broken lovelorn on your rocks

For you sing

'Touch me not, touch me not

Come back tomorrow

Oh my heart, oh my heart

Shies from the sorrow'

I am puzzled as the oyster

I am troubled as the tide

Should I stand amid your breakers ?

Or should I lie with death my bride ?

Hear me sing

'Swim to me, swim to me

Let me enfold you

Here I am, here I am

Waiting to hold you'

"...She would look sadly up after them and feel like crying; but mermaids can't weep and that makes their suffering even deeper and greater. ..." Hans Christian Anderson, --The Little Mermaid.

This live version, the way he sings it so clear with such emotion, never fails to give me goosebumps.

How time can hold such sweet and ironic retribution. He abandoned his son to pursue fame, only to end up the linear note of his sons name.

This song makes me feel terrible as a song writer! Even though Tim is one of my biggest songwriting inspirations... It's just that good.
