My Friend the Sea lyrics

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

Searching high, searching low

Searching 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 river and stream

Look everywhere 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 at 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
