Ocean

Here comes the ocean
And the waves
Down by the sea
Here comes the Ocean
And the waves
Where have they been?

Silver and black with night
Here's to a summer's night
An empty splendid castle
Glowering alone at night
The princess has had a fright
Madness seeks out the lover

And here come the waves
Down by the shore
Washing the soul of the body
That comes from the depths of the sea

Here comes the ocean
And the waves
Down by the sea
Here comes the ocean
And the waves
Where have they been

Don't swim tonight my love
The tide is out my love
Malcolm's curse haunts our family
Oh yes, loud in which,
Ruler of filthy seas
Revelling in heavens justice

And here come the waves
And save for a scream
There's much like a song
To be heard in the wind
That blows by the sea.

Here come the waves,
Here come the waves,
Here come the waves...
