In brief
Amroth was lord of Lorien and loved Nimrodel, and for her sake he dwelt in the trees of the hill that still bears his name, Cerin Amroth. When she was lost on the way south he waited at the haven in Belfalas; the ship was driven out to sea while he slept, and he leapt into the water to swim back to shore and was never found. Legolas sings of them at the crossing of Nimrodel.
