Lyrics
Blue water
Sit and I wait
For the morning to come
Blue water
And I wait for the sound of my gypsy
Blue water
I’m sitting on a flight
Hidden out of sight
Blue water
Blue water
And I stare at the sea
And the sea smiles for me
And the sea is as moving as a lover
I can’t give up the night
I’m in high tide
I’d like to sail the sea
I’d like to take you on a slow ride
I won’t give up the night
High tides
I’d like to sail the sea
I’d like to take you on a slow ride
Slow ride
Slow ride
Blue water
I sit and I wait for the morning to come
Blue water
And I wait for the sound
Blue water
Sitting on a flight
Hidden out of sight
Blue water
And I wait for the sound
Wait for the sound
And I smile at the sea
And the sea smiles for me
And the sea is as moving as a lover
I can’t give up the night
I’m in hide tide
I’d like to sail the sea
I’d like to take you on a slow ride
A slow ride
I won’t give up the night
I’m in high tide
I’d like to be your friend
I’d love to love you till the end
Till the end
Blue water
I sit and I pray
For the morning to come
Blue water
And I wait
For the sound of my gypsy
Blue water
I’m sitting on a flight
Hidden out of sight
Blue water
Blue water
And I smile at the sea
And then the sea smiles for me
And the sea is as moving as a lover
A love
I can’t give up the night
I’m in high tide
I’d love to sail the sea
I’d love to take you on a slow ride
I can’t give up the night
I’m in high tide
I’d like to be your friend
I’d like to love you till the end
Blue water
I sit and I wait
For the morning to come
