Summary
A sailor's love song. He remembers his sweetheart and the promises he made to her. Even though he is far from home, she is on his mind all the time. He always has her picture and a lock of her hair with him wherever he goes. She asked him to give up the sea as she worries for his safety. As soon as he makes land, he will return to Lewis and the girl who was brought up next door to him.
