Sea Breeze

Jim Reeves · Welcome to My World [1996]

(James Joiner)



I saw a ship a sailing

On the ocean blue

I ran right down to the ocean side

In hopes that it was you.



So long ago you left me

To sail to a foreign land

But when that ship went sailing by

My hopes dropped to the sand.



Seabreeze ocean wave

Bring my lover please

Turn her sails toward my heart

And bring her back to me.



--- Instrumental ---



The rising sun reminds me

Of the day she had to go

She set her sails to the morning tide

And filled my heart with woe.



She told me when she left me

She'd sail to many shores

But her heart, her dreams would always be

With the one that she loved so.



--- Instrumental ---



Seabreeze ocean wave

Bring my lover please

Turn her sails toward my heart

And bring her back to me.



Bring her back to me.

Bring her back to me...
