Ocean Will Be Lyrics

the ocean will be
© 2010 gabriel yacoub | bruno coulais

even though voices be quiet, slumbering in deep-sea trenches
one can hear a rumbling thunder merging into the endless skies
dancing for joy
in a wind of splendour
that will keep blowing
for evermore

crawling through waves, pebbles and seaweed, entwined amongst the sand
shades of the unknown with no equation, shells on the wasteland
from the floor of the ocean, fathoms of greatness, a place where no man can be

the truth of the ocean
the open s***e
light out, wanderlust
for evermore
ancient monsters, fairy fish will arise from the dawn of time

restless souls of sailors of days gone-by keep wandering in liquid peace
deep in the dark, ploughing the sea, reach out to eternity
and none of them will call the beasts other than by their own true name

the widow will wait
for the sun to come out
the ocean will be
for evermore

ancient monsters, fairy fish will arise from the dawn of time
some of them threatened, some extinct, dissolved in mystery
shipwrecks and prayers
banners of old
storms and man
for evermore

ancient monsters, fairy fish will arise from the dawn of time
some of them threatened, some extinct, dissolved in mystery
many more will be spared to tell the endless tale of water and man
of giving and taking, teaching and learning, of hunters and of prey

dancing for joy
in a wind of splendour
that will be blowing
for evermore
