Lost at Sea/Quotes

Alone, alone, all, all alone,
Alone on a wide wide sea!
And never a saint took pity on
My soul in agony.

Water, water, everywhere,
But not a drop to drink!

—Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Mister postman, do you have a letter for me
from my own true love
lost at sea?

—The Decemberists, "Lost at Sea"
