Lyrics
Well it's early Sunday morning, as I nurse a cup of tea
Yeah I'm starin out my window at the pretty Blue sea
Yeah seems to me, ain't just the sea that's blue, me too
Well I'm talkin to an old man, tells me stories & I listen
Their love & pride were robbed by some useless politician
Yesh sad & true, ain't just the sea that's blue
Some they just stay home now, while so many move away
some just sit there waiting, they just hope & pray
Yeah, sad & true, Ain't just the sea that's blue
The sea sits still & lonely, not a ship or boat in sight
Just one crow passing over, bringing sorrow day & night
Yeah sad & true, Ain't just the sea that's blue
