China Doll

Ran down to the ocean to find my love the sea,
and she ran out to meet me and splashed around my feet.
I am just a sailor without a port of call,
and she is my ocean, my little China doll.

No sooner I am swimming in her eyes so blue,
and she pulls me under slowly where breaths are far and few.
She crashes all around me as I sink in awe
of my deep blue ocean, my little China doll.

Now we're slowly dancing as she rocks me to sleep.
For I am just a puppet of the ocean deep.
And just before my last breath, up through the surface I saw
sunlight dancing on the water and my little China doll.
