about

Music by Rob Garcia, lyrics by Joanna Wallfisch

lyrics

The sea, the sea, oh beautiful sea.
My love, to see, how it captures me.
The sea, oh sea, the powerful sea.
Will you relent, and just let me be?

The ocean is a powerful beast,
It loves you with its wrath.
Welcomes you with waving arms
And takes you in one breath.

Beautiful Ocean, oooh.
Beautiful Ocean, oooh.

The deep, the shining blue of you,
The taste, the touch and thrill of you,
The tipping and the tide of you,
The deepest blue, near black of you.

And as you dip me in your arms,
You bend and twist me with your charms.
Oh how long for more, yet breathless calm,
Relent I plead, I mean no harm.

You take and drown me, smother and smooth.
I take your lead, I feel your groove.
And with each wave I close my eyes,
Your sandy grounds are my new skies.

Beautiful Ocean, oooh.
Beautiful Ocean, oooh.

The deep, the shining blue of you,
The taste, the touch and thrill of you,
The tipping and the tide of you,
The deepest blue, near black of you.

The sea, oh sea, my sea,
How I love you, will you love me?
The sea, oh sea, never will be
For ocean, beast, forever is free...
