Lonely Sea by Niamh Keane Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Salt stings my lips, as the waves rock
Against the edge, in around my head
Feel I could go around on this trip
No end to be seen, no end to be blessed

[Chorus]
As the waves rock on forever
They mock my endeavours
The sirens sing that I am lost, they sing me a forgotten song
Never again will I leave you
Not for glory, not for gold
It serves me right, to sail this lonely sea
That forever will hold me

[Verse 2]
Seaweed sours the air
How long I've been voyaging, I couldn’t say
A thousand nights or twenty sunsets
Or one endlesss day, that I will pay?
[Chorus]
As the waves rock on forever
They mock my endeavours
The sirens sing that I am lost, they sing me a forgotten song
Never again will I leave you
Not for glory, not for gold
It serves me right, to sail this lonely sea
That forever will hold me

[Bridge]
Oh she haunts me, oh she holds me
She’s taken me, taken me for my greed
She’s taken me from my love
She's taken me for my greed
As I cling to your, I cling to your memory

[Chorus]
As the waves rock on forever
They mock my endeavours
The sirens sing that I am lost, they sing me a forgotten song
Never again will I leave you
Not for glory, not for gold
It serves me right, to sail this lonely sea
That forever will hold me
