![]() Lullaby Of The Sea The calm cool waters of the bay Are clear and blue by light of day But when the night begins to fall The sea begins its goodnight call As gentle trade winds start to blow The moon brings forth a gentle glow Its mellow light shines mystically And glistens softly on the sea Beside the shore the air is kissed By cool and salty ocean mist Where tiny bits of star light play Across the waters of the bay The waves then start to play a tune While dancing underneath the moon The surf brings every note ashore To place them at the ocean’s door When the tide comes rolling in The waters sing of where they’ve been A lilting song of far away That softly calls and seems to say "Dream with me my tired friend Until the night comes to an end Let me wash your cares away And rock you here ‘til break of day" So if at night you look for me Upon the shore is where I’ll be A place where I can close my eyes And hear the sea’s soft lullabies |
