Whispers of the Sea
The ocean sings a gentle tune,
Beneath the sky, beneath the moon.
Its waves roll soft, its waves roll free,
Forever calling, "Come to me."
The sand will tell a thousand tales,
Of ships that braved the mighty gales.
And still, the sea repeats its plea,
Forever calling, "Come to me."
