Lyrics
Waves
by Mike Franks and Jeff Owens
Sailing the sea like his father
and like his father before
The masts and the sails and the wooden rails is all he's ever known
but he'd give up this life 'n stay with his wife who waits for him at home
all alone, all alone
Out of nowhere comes a great storm
and like no other he'd seen
Black as coal from the deepest hole, a giant wave starts to rise
Gripping the rail, his face turns pale; fighting to survive
stay alive just stay alive
And she waits for him,
Like all the times she has before
and she calls to him
Will you be mine forever more? Forever more!
And the Waves wash away
And the Waves wash away
She waits for him on the Widow's Walk
as she has waited before
Clutching the rail she looks for a sail as far as she can see
Through the wind and the rain her question remains, Does he belong to me?
or the Sea? Or the Sea?
At daylight she sees the sails
They're coming close to shore
With her coat in her hand, and as fast as she can, off to the docks she runs
She sees the men meet their loved ones and freinds, as off the ship they come
one by one one by one
And she waits for him,
Like all the times she has before
and she calls to him
Will you be mine forever more? Forever more!
And the Waves wash away
And the Waves wash away
The ship is now nearly empty
It seems they've all come ashore
cursing her fears, and hiding her tears, she sees his smiling face
Just a few steps and then, together again, in their warm embrace
and she prays she softly prays
Rollin' Seas, winds that fill the sails- no more to roam
Set him free from storm and mighty gale, He's coming home,
Coming home, Coming home
The Sea, she waits for you,
like all the times she has before
and she calls to you
Will you be mine forever more? Forever more!
And the Waves wash away
And the Waves wash a - way
