Lyrics
Something has happened to Beverly, She opened a letter to find a picture of her love upon the sea in a ship with billowing sails It wasn't a letter of sympathy, it wasn't a wish of good health, it didn't express any words of love or sentiments of eternity. Beverly, my dear sweet lady my one and only Beverly, I'm writing to tell you I want to stay free, I'm not coming home The day he left she wanted to follow, but she knew he would never allow It's dangerous, life on the sea, stay here, I will come back for you And after he kissed her and told her he would never leave her He was gone and she knew that he would never come back
