Lullaby of the Sea

The calm cool waters of the bay Are clear and blue by light of day But as the night time starts to fall The sea begins its peaceful call As soothing 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 And as 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 "Come dream with me my tired friend Until the night comes to an end And let me wash your cares away Then 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
