about

I think of my father every time I hear this song.
Michelle sang it perfect.

lyrics

In a place by the coast,
lived a man by the sea
His memory brings on a smile,
thoughts of what used to be

When the waves crash upon the rock
and the ocean calls to me
And a bell in the distance tells
of the old man and the sea

A woman stands upon the shore,
her tears mix with the sea
A love lost so long ago,
her dreams will never be

The bell rolls on the ocean floor,
sings to those lost at sea
The bell calls to those upon the land,
who still yearn to be...
Upon the waves, with the wind
To be lost in the wild wild sea
