I remember the sea i remember |
|
How i thought she would sing forever |
|
Though her voice it became a whisper |
|
But the sea still sings in her heart |
|
To the furthest shores of alaska |
|
From the bow of a floundering tanker |
|
Her shores in eternal winter |
|
But the sea still sings in her heart |
|
She waits for the moment |
|
So still and alone |
|
On her shoreline a necklace of feather and bone |
|
No laughter of children |
|
Where nothing will grow |
|
But the sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings in her heart |
|
I remember the sea, i remember |
|
How she rose in a terrible temper |
|
On a stormy night in september |
|
How the sea still sings in her heart |
|
Taking back all her stolen treasure |
|
Giving back all our waste with a pleasure |
|
Hand in hand with a furious weather |
|
How the sea still sings in her heart |
|
No longer distraught and no longer alone |
|
She took all our shorelines and made them her own |
|
Drowned all the people asleep in their homes |
|
The sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings in her heart |
|
The mermaids were singing a warning |
|
The mermen were teasing and taunting |
|
The sirens a song that was haunting |
|
Tearing each ship from its mooring |
|
And the sea shed her black coat of mourning |
|
I remember the sea i remember |
|
The stillness and calm of the water |
|
And a song that went on forever |
|
The sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings |
|
The sea still sings in her heart |
