about

Music and Lyrics by Dan Frechette. Violin Arrangement by Laurel Thomsen.

lyrics

Echo of blue water I’ll never leave your side.
Your ocean sky my blanket your starlight as my guide.
Drift along this weightless whale so festooned in the sea.
My bride and I, my ship my sail, my dream dreaming of thee.

For many nights and moonlights I’ve waited on ‘ere shore.
For the sea to come to rescue me from loneliness and war.
The broken hearts cast aside as ships were floating free.
My bride and I, my ship, my sail, my dream dreaming of thee.

Without an answer to my shadow I foretold the tombs.
The hollow ghost broke open, the rising of typhoons.
Whispers turned to storms anchors held onto debris.
And my bride and I, my ship, my sail, the dream was lost on me .

I died inside her breasts I kissed the last of air farewell.
The morning sun was rising as she floated through the dell,
My love was sinking low but I thanked the Lord for thee.
My bride and I, My ship, my sail, my dream dreaming of thee.
