The storms are on the ocean

On and on they go

Searching through the waters

Where you might be low

And i am so downhearted

Never to be well

And i am disappointed

The words will never tell



The storms are on the ocean

The heavens may cease to be

This world may lose its motion

If i am false to you



The last time that i saw you

You shook my hand goodbye

You said it wasn't forever

That would be a lie

But that was such an old friend

He holds you in his hands

And i am so long waiting

To meet you in that land



The storms are on the ocean

The heavens may cease to be

This world may lose its motion

If i were false to thee
