The Ozark Mountain Daredevils - Out on the Sea lyrics

(INTRO)

out on the sea, there is an island

out on the sea, there is a place

out on the sea there's a wave

with the power to save

all the sailors from the dark and the deep

we used to dance in the shadows

under the moon's pale light

away from home and all alone

turning away into the night

and she would shine like a diamond

trapped in a clear crystal ring

and the tears in my eyes

were the stars in the sky

fading away when she would sing

out on the sea, there is an island

out on the sea, there is a place

out on the sea there's a wave

with the power to save

all the sailors from the dark and the deep
