Road maps revive an old story
Showing the distance from you
Look to the sea
Between blue and me
And it's you
And though there are words we're exchanging
When will I see you again
It's been a year
Since you were here
My friend

Waves of emotion, sea of joy
Times of sadness and one small boy
Empty harbour, ship set sail
I'm home to nothing 'cept a siren's wail
His father's a sailor and a travelling man
Yes he left this morning
With a shake of the hand
His mother's a lady who forgets she's a wife
And she's making sure
On a different score of life

Waves of emotion, sea of joy
Times of sadness and one small boy
Empty harbour, ship set sail
I'm home to nothing 'cept a siren's wail
His father's a sailor and a travelling man
Yes he left this morning for a faraway land
His mother's a lady who forgets she's a wife
Yes she's making sure
On a different score of life

Look to the sea
Between blue and me
And it's you
