Lovers of the Ocean

Watching the ships sail away
See how the clouds disappear
With each wave a little further
The Ocean glides on Eternity

Standing knee deep in salt water
Ambitious to find a new horizon
Reach out for the best, succeed the test,
Lovers of the Ocean

Footsteps vanish in the sand
The music fades as the wind blows
Stronger than nature surrounding us
Far away, somewhere, far away…

Watching the ships sail away
See how the clouds disappear
With each wave a little further
The Ocean leads into Eternity

Knee deep in salt water
Eyes set far beyond
Looking for another destination
Lovers of the Ocean

Footsteps vanished in the sand
Water separates from earthly friends
Like a feeling the Ocean would take them
Far away, somewhere, far away…
