Ocean Wave Girl
Over the seven seas lies my faith and strength
Over the hundred years lies my soul within
Across the ocean is my open shore of glory
Each wave that crosses over tells a specific story
You can see me from the hills over yonder
A ocean wave girl living up to her honor
You can see my shadow at the mountain arch
A heart that shed so much blood, but a perfect art
I've known to be a warrior, I knew from the start
The wind is the hill I have to cross over, when the wind
blows hard, I look pass my shoulders, cause the love in
my veins is what keeps me still, to flow back in the water
and live up to my will.
