Where Does The Ocean Go? - Katie Melua

Through a cloudy haze on the sun lit sea

We waved them away from the southern key

17 hands but the one in charge

Was one fine man from the bio sauvage

Mon cher, senior keep c’est Caesar

I try not to show him the tear in my eye

I send my love I’ll wait for you

Farewell sweet boy from the one by you

Where does the ocean go?

Should I let it take me?

Any second they may wake me

Does anybody know?

Where does the ocean go?

I knew back then as I always known

That say this pray is traitor’s law

But the ship went down off the coast of Spain

I read the letter, felt his pain

Some days I walk on the harbor side

And I watch the sea and the rising tide

And I see him there like a sand mirage

My last man in the moon du sauvage

Does anybody know?

Where does the ocean go?
