Letters to the Sea

I write you letters to the sea
Fold them small and set them free
The tide comes in, the tide goes out
And carries all my words about

The lighthouse turns its lonely eye
On every ship that passes by

Oh, letters to the sea
Will you ever come back to me
Every wave that breaks the shore
Whispers what I'm waiting for

Your coat still hangs behind the door
Your boots still waiting on the floor
The gulls are crying out your name
The harbor never looks the same

The lighthouse turns its lonely eye
On every ship that passes by

Oh, letters to the sea
Will you ever come back to me
Every wave that breaks the shore
Whispers what I'm waiting for

Oh, letters to the sea
Carry home my love to thee
Every wave that breaks the shore
I will love you evermore
