There ain't a man alive that I don't love The captain of a ship that sank like lead He sailed away while angels cried above Now I'm sleeping in a stranger's bed (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea There ain't a man alive that I don't need But when I kiss their lips, I think of him The dark-haired devil’s like an evil seed He planted in my heart and mind and skin [interlude] (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh!) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh!) My lover's in the deep blue sea They tried to save him, though I did not care (I let him go, I let him drown) He called my name, I just stood there So my saddened heart is slowly sinking down (my heart!) From shelves I fetch aged bottled rain, I drown myself to ease this pain. because (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea (Oh) My lover's in the deep blue sea
