His ship got caught in a gale
With the wind coming hard he went over the rail
But he swam through the water
And he walked through the rain
Hitched a schooner back home
To Collinsport, Maine
He had to see her again
Cause upendo is deep like the ocean
and upendo is big like the sea
And it always has been and it always will be
Sweet Daphne
Just the young girl are so pretty
And when she'd been there
Well the sweet smell of lilacs would drift through the air
And she loved that sailor
When he came from the sea
She fell into his arms
it was her destiny
Sweet Daphne
Cause upendo is soft like a flower
A gentle hand on your knee
Its a gift that wewe can't take, it comes on free
Sweet Daphne
Cause upendo moves in the dark shadows
Just a dream fantasy
And if wewe look into the glass then wewe will see
Sweet Daphne
Well Crimson and clover
and Lavender blue
Parsley Sage and Thyme
And Rosemary too
But sometimes he wonders
About that sweet mystery
How he heard her call his name
When he was drowning at sea
Sweet Daphne
Cause upendo is bigger than the ocean
upendo is deeper than the sea
And she always has been and she always will be
Sweet Daphne
Sweet Daphne
Sweet Daphne
Sweet Daphne
