Candlelight dies at the window And the night wind blows soft from the sea Though I lie in your arms, I'm a thousand miles away On the waves sailing fast, sailing free
Now I'm bound for the heart of the ocean I'm riding the sea in my soul In the dark and the deep She will rock me to sleep Down below... where the black waters roll
When the sea birds cry out in the morning And the sun lays its kiss on the sand I'll be drawn to the shore Like so many times before As I long to be far from the land.
Now I'm bound for the heart of the ocean I'm riding the sea in my soul In the dark and the deep She will rock me to sleep Down below... where the black waters roll
I can still hear your voice on the trade winds I can still taste your tears on the foam But the lure of the tide that I'm feeling inside Will not rest till my heart finds its home
Now my heart is the heart of the ocean There are storms from the sea in my soul I'm restless and deep And before I can sleep I must go... where the black waters roll
