The storms are on the ocean on and on they go searching through the waters where you might be low and I am so downhearted never to be well and I am disappointed the words will never tell the storms are on the ocean the heavens may cease to be this world may lose its motion if I am false to you the last time that I saw you you shook my hand goodbye you said it wasn't forever that would be a lie but that was such an old friend he holds you in his hands and I am so long waiting to meet you in that land the storms are on the ocean the heavens may cease to be this world may lose its motion if I were false to thee
