Listen To The Ocean
Nina Moller & Frederik van Pallandt
2/4 - Nina & Frederik (1959)


Ooh ooh ohoh ooh ooh ohohoh ohoh

There's a world of sun and sand
Full of sky and far from land
Where evening breezes caress the shore
Like a gentle comforting hand

Fragrant blossoms, honey bees
Careless laughter upon the breeze
And lovers fading to pools of deep
Purple shadows among the trees

Listen to the ocean echoes of a million seashells
Forever it's in motion
Moving to a rhythmic and unwritten music
That's played eternally

break (instr. als refrein)

The sound of a seagull's distant cry
His wings like parentheses is drawn in the sky
And two white birds clinging like foam
To the crest of a wave rolling by

The silence of noon, the clamour of night
The heat of the day when the fish won't bite
These are the things that remind me of
The day you sailed out of sight

Listen to the ocean echoes of a million seashells
Forever it's in motion
Moving to a rhythmic and unwritten music
That's played eternally

Ooh ooh ohoh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ohoh ooh ooh ohohoh ooh

==================================

Het doorgestreepte is een soort opmaat en acapella.

Dit was een lievelingsliedje van mijn moeder.
