The Sand and the Sea
Words & Music by Hal Hester & Barry ParkerRecorded by Nat King Cole, 1955 (#23)
G7 C C/B A7
If I find peace of mind in the sand and the sea,
A A7 Dm G7 CM7 Em7 A7
There's a hope in my heart that you'll soon be with me;
F Fdim Am Am+7
There's a prayer that I share with the sand and the sea,
F Dm7 C
And it cries "Come to me, come to me."
G7 C C/B A7
As my eyes search the skies from the edge of the shore,
A A7 Dm G7 CM7 Em7 A7
You are here in my arms for a moment or more;
F Fdim Am Am+7
Then a tear rushes down to the sand and the sea,
F Dm7 C
And it cries "Come to me, come to me."
G7 Am7 Am+7 Em B+
But as long as there's sand, as long as there's sea,
Dm7 G CM7 Em7 A7
As long as there's time, I'll wait hope - ful - ly;
Dm G7 Am Em7 Am7
As long as there's heaven up a - bove,
Am7/G F Am7 Dm7 G C
Let the sand and the sea bring my love to me.
G7 Am7 Am+7 Em B+
But as long as there's sand, as long as there's sea,
Dm7 G CM7 Em7 A7
As long as there's time, I'll wait hope - ful - ly;
Dm G7 Am Em7 Am7
As long as there's heaven up a - bove,
Am7/G F Am7 Dm7 G C
Let the sand and the sea bring my love to me.
