| Take the wave now and know that you’re free,
|
| Turn your back on the land face the sea,
|
| Face the wind now so wild and so strong,
|
| When you think of me,
|
| Wave to me and send me a song.
|
| Don’t look back when you reach the new shore,
|
| Don’t forget what you’re leaving me for,
|
| Don’t forget when you’re missing me so,
|
| Love must never hold,
|
| Never hold tight but let go.
|
| Oh the nights will be long,
|
| When I’m not in your arms,
|
| But I’ll be in your song, That you sing to me, across the sea.
|
| Somehow, someday, you will be far away,
|
| So far from me and maybe one day,
|
| I will follow you,
|
| And all you do,
|
| 'Til then, send me a song.
|
| When the sun sets the water on fire,
|
| When the wind swells the sails of your hire,
|
| Let the call of the bird on the wind,
|
| Calm your sadness and loneliness,
|
| And then start to sing to me,
|
| I will sing to you,
|
| If you promise to send me a song.
|
| I walk by the shore and I hear,
|
| Hear your song come so faint,
|
| And so clear,
|
| And I catch it, a breath on the wind,
|
| And I smile and I sing you a song,
|
| I will send you a song…
|
| I will sing you a song,
|
| I will sing to you…
|
| If you promise to send me a song. |
