Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCBADAD ABABEEBADADALONG the shore along the shore | A |
I see the wavelets meeting | B |
But thee I see ah never more | A |
For all my wild heart's beating | B |
The little wavelets come and go | C |
The tide of life ebbs to and fro | C |
Advancing and retreating | B |
But from the shore the steadfast shore | A |
The sea is parted never | D |
And mine I hold thee evermore | A |
Forever and forever | D |
- | |
Along the shore along the shore | A |
I hear the waves resounding | B |
But thou wilt cross them nevermore | A |
For all my wild heart's bounding | B |
The moon comes out above the tide | E |
And quiets all the billows wide | E |
Her pathway bright surrounding | B |
Thus on the shore the dreary shore | A |
I walk with weak endeavor | D |
I have thy love's light evermore | A |
Forever and forever | D |
