Doug Fitch - The Sea (Live) Lyrics

Sitting on the mossy green of the deepest forest floor
As the fog rolls from the ocean, as an army off to war
I sit up on the mountain, watching boats bob in the bay
And I think about them out there, just a-riding on the waves

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky
And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside
And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be
Oh, there's nothing quite so wonderful as man, except the sea

And sailors have been out there just a-living on the sea
They have tried their best to tame her all throughout their history
All these men and their inventions seem so wonderful to me
And there's nothing quite so wonderful as man, except the sea

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky
And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside
And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be
Oh, there's nothing quite so powerful as man, except the sea

Out on the mighty ocean, there's a cutter underway
To find a wounded freighter, to return her to the bay
As that casualty is rescued, they race to get her home
For the ocean can be fickle, and she may decide to storm

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky
And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside
And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be
Oh, there's nothing quite so powerful as man, except the sea

And there she blows, and the waves are like mountains in the sky
And no one knows how she calls such mighty power from inside
And there they go, just a-sailing off, as brave as they can be
Oh, there's nothing quite so powerful as man, except the sea
