lyrics

Tell me when will we meet again
In thunder wind or rain?
The seas they sing and our hearts begin
To wander far away

But I thought I heard a quiet word
Falling with the rain:

Won't you stay with me?
Forsake the sea, for I won't cast you away

We are careless, restless, homeless,
Always moving on
Like the evening dew that falls
In the morning we are gone

But I'd swear I heard a quiet word
Falling with the rain:

Won't you stay with me?
Forsake the sea, for I won't cast you away

So could we stand to stay on land
And plant our feet on the ground?
Look up at the sky and marvel how high
We flew before we came down?

And heed those words so often heard
Falling with the rain:

Won't you stay with me?
Forsake the sea, for I won't cast you away x2
