Look at the sky You see the moon shining bright I never thought that moonlight could be this bright It even drops a shadow on the beath It even drops a shadow on the beath Look at the sea You see the waves gone quiet I never thought that the ocean could be this kind It even washes off my feet in the sand It even washes off my sandy feet * Alone on the beach I shall write you a letter, a letter Alone on the beach I'll put it in a bottle and throw it in the water
So it can float away to your place someday ...someday The pine tree's thinking of the young man gone on the ship She never thought that roots could be this inconvenient So she drops a fruit on a wave Maybe he will pick it up and smell her scent * repeat twice I want you right by my side The sky may be cloudy Time may part us Distance may frighten us That's why I want you right by my side and touch my hands That's all I am asking for
