The storms are on the ocean On and on they go Searching through the waters Where you might be low And i am so downhearted Never to be well And i am disappointed The words will never tell The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion If i am false to you The last time that i saw you
You shook my hand goodbye You said it wasn't forever That would be a lie But that was such an old friend He holds you in his hands And i am so long waiting To meet you in that land The storms are on the ocean The heavens may cease to be This world may lose its motion If i were false to thee
