A year at sea since your letter came
 To shatter all our plans
 You set me free, changed your name
 I stretch out both these hands

 On board ship the rumours ride
 No-one meets my eye
 I’ve thrown your ring out on the tide
 I pray my curses fly

 To haunt you
 Haunt your bed
 Tap the windows you’ll wake in dread
 Pray that you’d loved me instead
 I’ll haunt you, I’ll haunt your bed

 I’ve walked alone upon this deck
 A thousand times or more
 Half a year from my return
 These cries fly back to shore

 You promised me your love was strong
 You said that you’d be true
 Go tell yourself now I’m long gone
 ‘Cause here’s what I will do

 I’ll haunt you
 Haunt your bed
 Tap the windows you’ll wake in dread
 Pray that you’d love me instead
 I’ll haunt you, I’ll haunt your bed
 I’ll haunt you
 Sleep in fear
 Whisper secrets in your ear
 A world away but I’ll be near
 I’ll haunt you

 Fear me
 Whenever you’re sleeping
 I will be watching over you
