Lyrics

(fog horn blows)

It don’t seem long ago, that foghorn had to blow!

Telling me it’s time to leave, to fight a war across the sea.

But we were so in love, our family had just begun!

Please keep me in your heart and remember when,

I get back we’ll start our lives again!

I left her standing by the sea, oh, oh, oh,

Longing for me, oh, oh, oh, Down by the sea!

My kids were oh so young, and they were so much fun!

They play and smile for me, a hug, a kiss and a goodbye daddy!

But please don’t forget me, whenever you look across the sea.

And remember daddy will come home and then we’ll never be alone!

I left them standing by the sea, oh, oh, oh,

Longing for me, oh, oh, oh, Down by the sea!

(bridge) Why do people hate, folks they don’t even know?

An innocent child grows up to become a vicious foe!

(music)

(bridge) Does it really matter which side is wrong or right?

Just destroy your enemy or get captured or fight!

Forget about humanity, forget about your sanity!

Just think about that life will end! just kill and kill and kill again!

but within those prison walls, the voices of your past will call.

Reminding you when times were good, when the meaning of life was understood!

I left them standing by the sea, oh, oh, oh,

Longing for me, oh, oh, oh, Down by the sea!

(fog horn blows)

And now that foghorn’s blown, telling me it’s taken me back home!

But I don’t thinks that things are gonna be fine, been gone for such a very long time.

There’s no one waiting by the sea, for me!

There’s no one waiting by the sea, for me!

I left them standing by the sea!
