Lyrics

While watching whales I wonder
Just where in the world they go.
Under ? then burst up through the waves
They swim, they live, they grow.
These wonderful, enormous, gentle mammals of the sea.
From north to south ? the sea?s your home
You choose ? where you will roam.

Do you ever worry as you swim and sing
Of your children?s future ? and what it will bring?
Have you seen friends harpooned, bleeding,
Hauled into a stalking ship?
Do salty tears roll from your eyes - as under sea you slip?

While watching whales I wonder
Just where in the world they go.
Under ? then burst up through the waves
They swim, they live, they grow.
These wonderful, enormous, gentle mammals of the sea.
From north to south ? the sea?s your home
You choose ? where you will roam.

Do you turn away, grieving the dying - lost
Wondering if ever man considers the cost?
Magnificent inhabitants of oceans -
Live eternally.
Enormous loss we couldn?t bear ? if you ceased to be!

While watching whales I wonder
Just where in the world they go.
Under ? then burst up through the waves
They swim, they live, they grow.
These wonderful, enormous, gentle mammals of the sea.
From north to south ? the sea?s your home
You choose ? where you will roam.
