Oh where is my sailor boy? Where is my sailor boy? He sleeps at the bottom of the deep blue sea And he can't come back to me I stand on the beach alone And gaze at the misty blue Deep sea as you hold him to your breast Does he mention my name to you? What does the deep sea say? What does the deep sea say? It moans It groans It splashes and it foames And rolls along its weary way Oh please tell me deep blue sea Is he sleeping peacefully? The winds from the north are blowin as he cold Can you keep him warm for me? If only my grieving soul Some token of love could flag If only the waves would show me where he sleeps I'd leave this world behind What does the deep sea say? Oh what does the deep sea say? It moans It groans It splashes and it foames And rolls along its weary way A beautiful rose one day Have replaced all the crist of wave I said take it please And let its pedals fall Above his watery grave The drift would have washed in vain My rose never came back again The waves take another massage through my love Said I'll be with him above What does the deep sea say? What does the deep sea say? It groans It holds to lovers and peace And rolls along its weary way...
