lyrics

On a hill, in a breeze
That blows from the sea
The hours do silently fly
With the sun, laying low
On the white waves below
The nightingale's voices
Do whisper, 堵oodbye”
How the hours do fly
Voices whisper goodbye

On a hill, 'neath a tree
She looks to the sea
With the eyes of a fisherman's girl
And blue turns to gray
With each drowning day
She watches him sail
O'r the edge of the world
And the blue turns to gray
He is sailing away

She whispers his name
Where wind is untamed
Where the waves always change
The sea is the same

On a hill, in his boots
Near the old trees deep roots
He meets her where she waits alone
Returning each day
From the cold, salty bay
To kneel in the flowers
That grow by her stone
She waits alone
As he comes home
She waits alone
As he comes home

She whispers his name
Where wind is untamed
Where the waves always change
The sea is the same
