Onliest Songtext / Lyric

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
