They walked along the gentle sand
they sang their song, hand in hand.
They both knew her passing would always be
an untimely death, a death to the sea.
He held her close, and kissed her cheek
she held back the tears, and her smile was weak.
And she said in a voice so gentle and sweet
"Forgive me my love, death I cannot defeat".
He knew those words, spoken before
and he knew he would lose her as they stood on the shore.
And she spoke to him, words he'd never forget
of the day to come, and of the day they met.
"Love i love you, you know i do,
and what must happen, we cannot undo,
As the sand at our feet, and the ocean in sight,
our love will soar, as the seagulls in flight
And love never dies, as the waves never cease, and overtime our love will only increase,
I may leave you love, but never forget,
the way the winds, they sang our song, on the day we met.
And the way the waves stood still, and how the sunset shone,
you were the one, I knew then, and I have always known.
The ocean's waves are now calling, calling out to me,
remember our love as i leave you now,
in my death, my death to the sea."
And so she left him, there and then,
she left him for the sea,
she left him saddened, weak at heart, and crying in misery.
He stood there staring, down at the sand,
and remembered when he held her hand.
And he remebered of when, they first met,
all those times he vowed to never forget.
But he felt within his soul he could never go on,
after his love, his angel was gone.
So he took a vow to all on earth, and to all above,
that he would die, for eternal love.
And he spoke his last words, with a meaning so true,
"My love this is what I must do.
So on love I swear, to take my life now,
for I cannot live without you, I wouldn't know how".
And he took his life, on the silent shore,
to be with his love, for evermore.
And be it known to all man, and to all above,
he died in agony, he died for love.
For he could not live without her, with just her memory,
of her untimely death, of their death to the sea
