Gently rocking back and forth against the calm of the waves
Two lovers sway in their drunkenness of his aftershave
She tries to hide her bosom, heaving to the band’s beat
Today her virgin voyage, he promises, will be complete
Out of sheer nervousness, she can’t hide her laughter
When he whispers in her ear all that will happen after
The cupid did not fail here at his skill of archery
And he brought whatever was left of the required artillery
They should reach the hour of glory certainly sometime soon
Nothing could possibly go wrong, it was the night of a full moon!
There were noises in the background, however muted by his voice
From the corner of her eye she saw a boat but she made a choice
She made a choice to keep looking straight into his eyes
His eyes looked worried but he tried to improvise
He asked her to leave the first chance she could get
He’ll meet her the next day and they’ll read about this in the gazette…
All one can see now are their silhouettes against the sea
Of a fine day in 1912 when he saw her bubbling melancholy
Telling him she does not deserve the impending penitentiary
Immortalized as a maiden for one less than a century
