THE WINDOW TO THE SEA song lyrics
by Joel Sattler
based on a translation of
"La finestra che dà sul mare" by Francesco Mega
as I watch the sea
through the window frame
see the clouds fly in
over the lighthouse in rain
blowing the boats as
they try to come
home
against the waves they
each go a
lone
and when
the mist
or the ocean
advances from the East
like a country
invading
the mainland
then
all your vision
is gone and
the grass rolls on and on and
the dusk becomes the dawning
lost in memory
I shall be a guest
in this house not mine
and with my back to the West
praising the sea
we've lost and
honor the sea that
that we shall ne'er
cross
thanks to
destiny for
safe harbor
for keeping safe and hidden
all our mis'ry and shame and
thanks to
God the Father
for keeping secrets
Who tries to ease our pain
but it is all in vain
as I watch the sea
I can feel it be
overwhelming me.....
