Description A MISTRESS NAMED THE SEA


ACROSS THE BEAUTIFUL AZURE SEA
HIS THOUGHTFUL GAZE WILL WANDER
REMEMBERING THE TIMES THAT USED TO BE
OFTEN HIS LONELY MIND STARTS TO PONDER
WHAT WOULD IT BE LIKE TO BE SO FREE

TO LET YOUR SAILS FILL WITH A WARM SUMMER BREEZE
TO FEEL YOUR SOUL RISE TO THE TOP OF THE MAST
FOR YOUR HEART TO TREAD LIKE A SHIP ON THE SEAS
FORGETTING THE MEMORIES OF YOUR EMPTY PAST

THE POWER OF THE OCEAN COURSING THROUGH YOUR VEINS
THE LIFE BLOOD OF THE SEA FILLING YOUR EMPTY HEART
FOLLOWING THE CURRENTS TO YOUR SPIRITS DESTINY
SEEKING HARBOR FROM THE STORM BEFORE IT TEARS YOU APART
WAITING PATIENTLY FOR THE MOMENT YOU WILL RETURN TO THE SEA

TO LET YOUR SAILS FILL WITH A WARM SUMMER BREEZE
TO FEEL YOUR SOUL RISE TO THE TOP OF THE MAST
FOR YOUR HEART TO TREAD LIKE A SHIP ON THE SEAS
FORGETTING THE MEMORIES OF YOUR LONELY PAST

SUCH IS THE TOLL THE OCEAN TAKES ON A MAN
IT LEADS HIM AWAY FROM THE ONES HE LOVES
THE SEA FULFILLS A NEED NO OTHER PERSON CAN
IT GUIDES HIM THROUGH LIFE BY THE STARS ABOVE

IT LETS YOUR SAILS FILL WITH A WARM SUMMER BREEZE
IT MAKES YOUR SOUL SOAR TO THE TOP OF THE MAST
IT ALLOWS YOUR HEART TO TREAD LIKE A SHIP ON THE SEAS
IT WILLS YOU TO FORGET THE MEMORIES OF YOUR LONELY PAST
