Sea and Sand Songtext
von Shirley Bassey

In the choir of the ocean air
Are you here? Were you ever there?
In the yellow shifting sands
In a dream I held your hand

I run to the sea and I reach for the sand
Just to hold in my hand, to believe your love
I stand with the waves, rushing in on the tide
With my arms open wide and I feel your love

I recall you in the sea and sand
Crying eyes and a reaching hand
Touching spray from my brow
Are you near? Where are you now?


I call to the sea, to the wind, to the rain
"Bring him back, come again, for I need your love"
I turn to the sky and I search with my eyes
For a sign you are mine and I see your love

And then the ebb tide brings a small
Piece of your driftwood in its hand
And you get washed up on the beaches of my long-forgotten sand
And I go searching down the long-deserted shorelines of my mind
Lighting fires with the pieces to pass away the time

I run to the sea and I reach for the sand
Just to hold in my hand, to believe your love
I stand with the waves, rushing in on the tide
With my arms open wide and I feel your love
I call to the sea, to the wind, to the rain
"Bring him back, come again, for I need your love"
I turn to the sky and I search with my eyes
For a sign you are mine and I see your love
I run to the sea and I reach for the sand
Just to hold in my hand, to believe your love
