The diver is my love

And I am his, if I am not deceived
F
Who takes one breath above
Am
For every hour below the sea
Verse 2
Am
Who gave to me a jewel
Worth twice this woman's life,

How do you choose your name?

Recall the word you gave

To count your way across the

that lay a bed of shining pearls

I dream it every night
The ringing of the pail,

the motes of sand dislodged
The shucking, quick and bright

The twinned and cast off shells

reveal a single heart of white

You do not take her for a sign

In nacre on a stone, alone,

I'll hunt the pearl of death
to the bottom of my life

And ever hold my breath 'til I

may be the diver's wife

See how the infinite divides

For the rift spanning distant shores

You don't know my name

But I know yours
