Melancholy me,
Starin' at the sea,
I want answers from these shores,
I wanna know what for and why,
Why do I listen to the sea,
It just roars and roars,
Right back at me.

Sometimes I have to leave,
it gets to strong,
Like the wind in my mind,
These tones become a song,
That's when I run,
I run down to the sea,
Just to hear that song,
Like angels sing to me.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, Oooooh,
Why-y-y-y-y-yyyy.)


Heaven hears me when I pray,
People listen when I sing,
Waves make such a change,
The shoreline rings with the sound of the sea,
Oh Melancholy me,
In touch with Heaven,
Thru the sounds of the sea.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh,ooh, ooh,
Why,y-y-y-y-yyyyy.)

Water conducts,
Metal conducts,
Bodies conduct,
Angels conduct energy...
From the sea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea...
Oh Melancholy me,
In touch with Heaven,
Thru the sounds of the sea...

Melancholy me,
Starin' at the sea,
I want answers from these shores,
I wanna know what for and why,
Why do I listen to the sea,
It just roars and roars,
Right back at me...

Melan-choly...me-e-e-e-e-eeee-eee.
