A song to the sea The sound of the waves that meet me Running on my bare feet back home To the place, the Northland, where we were young The waves are your smile The storm is your wild child howling Forcing me to tears without pain I can see my sorrows are not in vain A song to the sea, I'm near you, old friend, who made me I am just a bold kid in the sand Shaping bits of you with my hands This is how you feel When home is with you everywhere And this is how you feel When you make your own home anywhere I sang to the sea And it heard all the thoughts inside me Brought me to my knees - and I'm begging: "Please, please, please help me" The way it sees me The way it sets my mind free This is how you feel When home is with you everywhere This is how you feel When you make your own home anywhere You need a home and home is where you want it You need a home where you belong You need a home and home is where you want it You need a home where you belong You need a home and home is where you want it You need a home where you belong You need a home and home is where your heart is You need a home where you belong
