Lyrics Shirley Bassey

Shirley Bassey

The Sea and Sand

In the choir of the ocean air

Are you here? Were you ever there?

In the yellow shifting sand

In a dream I held your hand

I run to the sea

And I reach for the sand

Just to hold in my hand

To believe your love I stand with the waves rushing in

On the tide with my arms open wide

And I feel your love

I recall you in the sea and sand

Crying eyes and the reaching hand

Touching spray from my brow

Are you near?

Where are you now?

I call to the sea

To the wind

To the rain

Bring him back

Come again

Oh I need your love

I turn to the sky

And I search with my eyes

For a sign

You were mine

And I see your love

And then the ebb tide brings a small piece of your driftwood in it's hand

And you get washed up on the beaches of my long forgotten sand

And I go searching down the long deserted shore lines of my mind

Lighting fires with the pieces

To pass away the time

I run to the sea

And I reach for the sand

Just to hold in my hand

To believe your love I stand with the waves rushing in

On the tide with my arms open wide

And I feel your love

I call to the sea

To the wind

To the rain

Bring him back

Come again

For I need your love I turn to the sky

And I search with my eyes

For a sign

You were mine

And I see your love

I run to the sea

And I reach for the sand

Just to hold in my hand

To believe your love
