My friend she travels here and there
Although she’s smiling, her pain is clear as can be
As she seems full of sadness
She sounds as though she misses home
And all of whom she loves
Traveling sure takes its toll
When you are out to sea
A never-ending yearning for what use to be
She sits there with her husband, lover, and friend
Although he’s everything she ever hoped for
She still seems to be missing her friends and family
There seems to be no substitute
For the love of family and friends
No ocean big or small
No sunset or moonrise
Nor the stars at night
Why not come home my dear friend
For we miss you just as you miss us
Out to Sea©
