Oh you great ocean so deep, Oh you ocean so wide I feel you are my friend so in you I confide You know the world, every land, every shore There's not a place you don't explore Send every wave as it rolls on it's way Searchin' high, searchin' low, searchin' each little bay Send out a plea to the whole of seven seas Where is the one I adore? My friend the sea, be true to me My love, one day sailed far away My friend the sea, please ask the tide To bring my love home to my side Oh you great ocean so deep, Oh you ocean so wide There are hearts you unite, There are hearts you divide You know the world; Every river, mountain, stream Look everywhere you've ever been Ask all the fish as they swim out to sea Would they pa** on the word as a favor to me Maybe they'll look out some little brook And find the one I adore My friend the sea, be true to me My love, one day sailed far away My friend the sea, please ask the tide To bring my love home to my side
