|
Where is my sailor boy, where is my sailor boy |
|
He sleeps at the bottom of the deep blue sea |
|
And he can't come back to me |
|
I stand on the beach alone and gaze at the mysty blue |
|
Deep sea as you hold him to your breast, |
|
Does he mention my name to you? |
|
Chorus: |
|
What does the deep sea say, what does the deep sea say |
|
It moans, it groans, it splashes, and it foams, and it rolls on it's weary way |
|
Oh please tell me deep blue sea, is he sleeping peacefully |
|
The winds from the north are blowing icy cold, |
|
Please keep him warm for me |
|
If only my dreamin soul, some token of love could find |
|
If only the waves would show me whre he sleeps, |
|
Then I'd leave this world behind |
|
Chorus: |
|
What does the deep sea say, what does the deep sea say |
|
It moans, it groans, it splashes, and it foams, and it rolls on it's weary way |
|
A beautiful rose one day, I placed on the crest of a wave |
|
I said take it please and let the petals fall |
|
Above his watery grave |
|
The driftwood I watched in vain, my rose never came back again |
|
So wave take another message to my love, |
|
Saayin I'll be here above |
|
Chorus: |
|
What does the deep sea say, what does the deep sea say |
|
It moans, it groans, it splashes, and it foams, and it rolls on it's weary way |
