By Pablo Rodriguez
I sit by the sea
And let the waves talk to me
With stories of days gone by
About seafarers of old and sailors so bold
And frigate birds high in the sky
The lapping of the waves
Tell stories of better days
When our people were free to roam
Across oceans so wide
With the wind and stars as our guide
Looking for some place called home
Of mythical men
We will never see again
And gods that we once called our own
And how the world came to be
For people like me
Where our spirits forever did roam
But the waves on the shore
Do not seem the same any more
Their stories are now full of horror
They are filled with a warning
About global warming and its consequences
Will we destroy this world like the one before
And so I still sit by the sea
And let the waves talk to me
With stories of days gone by
About seafarers of old and sailors so bold
And frigate birds high in the sky
