Listening to the quiet song of the waves
A song of buried treasures and hidden caves.
As it ripples upon the sandy shore.
A tide that moves forever more.

Listening to the quiet song of the sea
A movement that lasts for an eternity.
It sings a song of pirates and ships
Or as long lost lovers meet with their lips.

Listening to the quiet song of the ocean
A song that's full of longing and motion.
It calls your name with its sweet song
And in the waves, you always belong.
