Secret Of The Sea
Anggun · Snow On The Sahara [1998]
Its all I do
One day you'll come back to me
Its a secret of the sea, I'll always love you
Always
I see, floating on the ocean
Somewhere under the sun
Your golden skin in cypress and blue
I hear, waves that come rollin in
Fleetness of wings
A sound is missing, a sign from you
Chorus:
Callin cross the blue, its all I do
one day you'll come back to me
Its a secret of the sea, I'll always love you
I may never know, where you did go
Whatever took you from here
On these currents that run deep, I'll always love you
Always
We would, sail into that big sky
Forget about the time
On the wind we would ride
Watchin wild birds sweep and glide
I'll linger just a little more
Drifting on a foreign shore
Spend my nights
Waiting at the tide
Chorus
(repeats twice)
