Kailyarders - Married to the Sea Lyrics

On a grey September morning I stood upon the prow
I said a prayer and bowed my head as we both exchanged our vows
And I swear I heard a voice say now you belong to me
And in that special moment I was married to the sea

I used to be a landlubber back then, for what it's worth
But I lost my wife and only son while she was giving birth
And the ocean spray it soothes my pain 'n somehow sets me free
It was then I decided I was married to the sea

Married to the sea. She sends a salty gust of wind to kiss me on the cheek
Married to the sea. The power of the ocean reminds me the flesh is weak
Forever I'll be married to the sea

So I wake up every morning; greet my temperamental bride
Sometimes she's calm and gentle and happily I glide
Other times she's feisty and directs her rage at me
But I wouldn't have it any other way, married to the sea

Married to the sea. She sends a salty gust of wind to kiss me on the cheek
Married to the sea. The power of the ocean reminds me the flesh is weak
Forever I'll be married to the sea

I go to sleep at night never knowing what's in store
She'll make a merry widow on the day that I'm no more
But 'til then I'll take what bounty she offers up to me
Until I sleep eternal I'll be married to the sea

Married to the sea. She sends a salty gust of wind to kiss me on the cheek
Married to the sea. The power of the ocean reminds me the flesh is weak
Forever I'll be married to the sea
Forever I'll be married to the sea
