It was years ago that we met By the shining silver sea Into our hearts love we let By the shining silver sea Two strangers together By the shining silver sea To love we surrender By the shining silver sea Both of us searching By the shining silver sea Our hearts they were lurching By the shining silver sea You took my hand By the shining silver sea And for once I understand By the shining silver sea I thought I was alone I thought I could turn to stone No one would know No one would care But...love will now grow You and I will now bear The trials of life not alone We will have flown To the shining silver sea.
