Oh, you great ocean so deep Oh, you ocean so wide I feel you are my friend So in you I confide
You know the world Every land, every shore There's not a place You don't explore
Send every wave As it rolls on it's way Searchin' high, searchin' low Searchin' each little bay
Send out a plea to the Whole of seven seas Where is the one I adore
My friend, the sea Be true to me My love, one day Sailed far away
My friend, the sea Please ask the tide To bring my love Home to my side
Oh, you great ocean so deep Oh, you ocean so wide There are hearts you unite There are hearts you divide
You know the world Every riddle, mountain, stream Look every where you've ever been
Ask all the fish as they swim out to sea Would they pass on the word as a favor to me Maybe they'll look out some little brook And find the one I adore
My friend, the sea Be good to me My love, one day Sailed far away
My friend, the sea Please ask the tide To bring my love Home to my side
