I remember the sea I remember
  How I thought she would sing forever
  Though her voice it became a whisper
  But the sea still sings in her heart
  
  To the furthest shores of Alaska
  From the bow of a floundering tanker
  Her shores in eternal winter
  But the sea still sings in her heart
  
  She waits for the moment
  So still and alone
  On her shoreline a necklace of feather and bone
  No laughter of children
  Where nothing will grow
  But the sea still sings
  The sea still sings
  The sea still sings in her heart
  
  I remember the sea, I remember
  How she rose in a terrible temper
  On a stormy night in September
  How the sea still sings in her heart
  
  Taking back all her stolen treasure
  Giving back all our waste with a pleasure
  Hand in hand with a furious weather
  How the sea still sings in her heart
  
  No longer distraught and no longer alone
  She took all our shorelines and made them her own
  Drowned all the people asleep in their homes
  The sea still sings
  The sea still sings
  The sea still sings in her heart
  
  The mermaids were singing a warning
  The mermen were teasing and taunting
  The sirens a song that was haunting
  Tearing each ship from its mooring
  And the sea shed her black coat of mourning
  
  I remember the sea I remember
  The stillness and calm of the water
  And a song that went on forever
  The sea still sings
  The sea still sings
  The sea still sings
  The sea still sings in her heart
