The Sea (Live) Lyrics

Sitting on the mossy green of the deepest forest floor

As the fog rolls from the ocean, as an army off to war

I sit up on the mountain, watching boats bob in the bay

And I think about them out there, just a-riding on the waves

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky

And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside

And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be

Oh, there's nothing quite so wonderful as man, except the sea

And sailors have been out there just a-living on the sea

They have tried their best to tame her all throughout their history

All these men and their inventions seem so wonderful to me

And there's nothing quite so wonderful as man, except the sea

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky

And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside

And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be

Oh, there's nothing quite so powerful as man, except the sea

Out on the mighty ocean, there's a cutter underway

To find a wounded freighter, to return her to the bay

As that casualty is rescued, they race to get her home

For the ocean can be fickle, and she may decide to storm

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky

And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside

And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be

Oh, there's nothing quite so powerful as man, except the sea

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky

And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside

And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be

Oh, there's nothing quite so powerful as man, except the sea
