BILLIE HOLIDAY - BEYOND THE SEA (LA MER) lyrics

rate me

Charles Trenet (Jack Lawrence)

Somewhere beyond the sea

Somewhere waiting for me

My lover stands on golden sands

And watches the ships that go sailing

Somewhere beyond the sea

He's watching for me

If I could fly like birds on high

Then straigt to his arms I'd go sailing

It's far beyond a star, it's near beyond the moon

I know beyond a doubt

My heart will lead me there soon

We'll meet beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before

Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailing

Some sailing
