I don't know where this is from actually, it's sung by Frodo:

"The Sea-Bell"

Then I saw a boat silently float
on the night-tide, empty and grey
"It is later than late! Why do we wait?"
I leapt in and cried: Bear me away!"

At last here came light in my lonely night,
And I saw my hair hanging grey
"Bent though I be, I must find the sea.
I have lost myself, and I know not the way
but let me be gone!" Then I stumbled on.
