I long for thee, I long for thee
My hands are trembling, for I see
In the horizon far ahead
The sea doth wait, it waits for me
I hear it whispering in the wind
Waves shatter in an endless dance
And all about me twilight falls
And stars appear, as darkness spreads
Such calmness fills my heart at last
A peace that words cannot express
For when mists of the sea blow past
They lift all that which burdens me
And carrys inner doubts away
As seagulls cry and waves wash by
I come to thee, I come to thee
I close my eyes, for I still fear
That when at last I will draw near
The sea will vanish, leave me be
I smell the salty air and feel
The touch of soft sand on my feet
And now I know the sea will stand
And never will this beauty end
For even when all hope will fail
The timeless sea shall linger on
The tears we cried will flow there still
And waves will always wash ashore
The sun will set in dazzling light
And mark the turn of day to night
