Oh, it came from the sea Yes it came from the sound The water is rising it covered my knees Hang on to the bow line We're all bearing down Oh, it came from the sea Lightning has shattered a hole in the night White waves have taken my family away From top of the mainsail, you pray and you plea Oh, it came from the sea La da da da da dum Steady wall of gold and green and Sun La da da da da dum Daddy's gone to sea and now he's gone Oh, it came from the sea Yes it came from the sky Salt water rings on the lids of your eyes The whales will swim where the trees used to be Oh, it came from the sea Raise the sails tonight The sea's our home tonight All hands on tonight We all go down tonight
