send me a song

take the wave now and know that you're free

turn your back on the land face the sea

face the wind now so wild and so strong

when you think of me

wave to me and send me a song. don't look back when you reach the new shore

don't forget what you're leaving me for

don't forget when you're missing me so

love must never hold

never hold tight but let go. oh the nights will be long

when i'm not in your arms

but i'll be in your song

that you sing to me

across the sea. somehow

someday

you will be far away

so far from me and maybe one day

i will follow you

and all you do

'til then

send me a song. when the sun sets the water on fire

when the wind swells the sails of your hire

let the call of the bird on the wind

calm your sadness and loneliness

and then start to sing to me

i will sing to you

if you promise to send me a song. i walk by the shore and i hear

hear your song come so faint

and so clear

and i catch it

a breath on the wind

and i smile and i sing you a song

i will send you a song. i will sing you a song

i will sing to you. if you promise to send me a song.
