Living as a child so carefree and gay
My hopes and my dreams in the future dost lay
At a very young age, I left my home
With an emotional need I started to roam
Wishing for excitement, dreaming of what to be
My greatest ambition was to sail the sea
I started out alone, In a very small canoe
I grew tired and weary, very lonely and blue
I sailed out alone, for about a year
The great waters grew rough, and I cried of fear
Then all of a sudden, There was a raft
A man was on board, at me he did laugh
Being very much alone, and so was he
He asked me aboard, on the raft of the free
Thinking not twice, of the things he said
I climed aboard the raft, for loneliness I dread
We drifted around, for about several years
He helped me forget, My loneliness and fears
Then up blew a storm, threw us around for awhile
We crashed on the rocks, of a deserted Isle
He built another raft, said, don't worry my dear
I'll find us gold, will return in a year
So he left me alone, I forced him a smile
Without any fear of this beautiful Isle
Oh! I had my problems, with worries and strife
But I was determined, to have a good life
Then came a man in a beat up boat
It was all he could do, to remain afloat
I asked him ashore, to visit for a while
It was nice to have company, the offer made him smile
He told me of his past, the heartaches he endured
But the present was here, and the future he secured
We were both alone, and with such a great need
We made a life together, On the Isle of Intrigue
I loved this man, of that I was sure
And with his help, I soon matured
Then the year was over, here comes the raft
As he grew near us, He began to laugh
He saw not the man , as he left in his boat
And I prayed that he, could somehow remain afloat
I told my spouse, of this man at sea
And how dear he was in the heart of me
He said, with him, I won't share my life
You choose between us , to be a true wife
I couldn't choose, I was too upset
Neither life I shared , did I regret
I could see this man , anchored at sea
I loved him deeply, but did he love me
He said, If you can't decide, then I will
He went after this man, with the urge to kill
He found his boat, to the man's surprise
He climbed aboard, and hell did rise
He hampered this man, and threatened his life
And said to him, I understand you love my wife
He said, tell me of your love, and tell me more
But the man denied, ever being ashore
So he left him alone, anchored at sea
Feeling relieved and secure, he returned to me
I could vaugely believe, the things I heard
I loved him so much, everything blurred
He picked up anchor, and sailed out to sea
But of this man, will I ever be free
He loved me not, I know that now
I want to be a wife again, but know not how
I have fond memories, I don't regret
And I know too, I'll never forget
I promise myself, I'll try to be
The loyal wife that's expected of me
It takes a good man, to forgive and forget
Him leaving me alone, Is all I regret
It's warmth and love, and understanding I need
Will I find it again, on the Isle of Intrigue
