Lyrics
There's tales of him in books of lore
A sailor man who's nevermore
His buried heart lies underneath
The deepest depths of every sea
He yearns for me
He yearns for me
Across the great seas
Liquid deep with passion
Across the great seas
Our hearts are paid for ransom
A crashing wave thundered down
The ship he sailed was never found
His echoes reached the farthest shores
A blanket search for evermore
He cries for me
He cries for me
Across the great seas
Liquid deep with passion
Across the great seas
Our hearts are paid for ransom
A love that was so long ago
Is now buried at sea
The seed that waits to be sown
Lies helplessly
And when I sink into the waves
I feel his haunting, I sense his craves
He pulses through the deepest depths
Curses the day we ever met
He haunts me
He haunts me
Across the great seas
Liquid deep with passion
Across the great seas
Our hearts are paid for ransom
Across the great seas
Liquid deep with passion
Across the great seas
Our hearts are paid for ransom
