Nana Mouskouri - Deep And Silent Sea lyrics

Deep and silent sea

Close to you I feel protected.

You are so like me

In your face I am reflected.

Tell me what to do,

For you know so well

My soul is restless too.

Touching every shore

You belong to no one ever.

Let the tempest roar

You remain and dwell forever.

Secret are your ways.

Do you wonder that

I've loved you all my days?

You can be unkind

Where the children play

And you drown their castles in the tide.

They don't seem to mind

For they run to you

And their arms are open wide.

Teach me to be free

To be sure and strong and sea-like.

Deep and shining sea

You are what I long to be like.

Let the world go by

I will love you till

The silent sea runs dry.
