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
