What you gonna hold against her now
Would you rather were to sing her praises?
Working from the stern right up to the bow
Learning how to find her secret places

What you gonna say as they shut their eyes?
Yearning to remain in their good graces
Will you smell the sea, will you see the sky?
Painted on their young and hopeful faces

Something to believe
Somewhere to be free
A sanctuary at sea

Blue, blue as the bluest of hues
In the sea as she sails on by
True, true like the truest of true
In her eyes as she waves goodbye
Truest of true
Bluest of blue

How you gonna tell this story now?
It's getting so much harder to cover bases
Say it like it is or just feed them lies
And cover up the truth with your oily phrases

Something to believe
Somewhere to be free
A sanctuary at sea

Blue, blue as the darkest of hues
In the sea as you watch her cry
True, true like the saddest of truth
In her eyes as she says goodbye
Truest of true
Bluest of blue

Blue, blue as the bluest of hues
In the sea as she sails on by
True, true like the truest of true
In her eyes as she waves goodbye
Truest of true
Bluest of blue
Truest of true
Bluest of blue
