Through a cloudy haze on the sunlit sea,
We waved them away from the southern quay
17 hands but the one in charge,
Was one fine man from the bayou sauvage.

'Mon cher Simeon keep safe' says I
I try not to show him the tear in my eye,
I said 'my love I’ll wait for you,
Farewell sweet boy from the wild bayou

Where does the ocean go?
Should I let it take me?
Any second they may wake me.
Does anybody know?
Where does the ocean go?

I knew back then as I always know,
That sailors pray as the trade wind blow
But the ship went down off the coast of Spain,
I read the letter, felt his pain.

Where does the ocean go?
Should I let it take me?
Any second they may wake me.
Does anybody know?
Where does the ocean go?

Some days I walk on the harbor side,
And I watch the sea and the rising tide,
And I see him there like a sad mirage,
My last man in a monde sauvage.

Where does the ocean go?
Should I let it take me?
Any second they may wake me.
Does anybody know?
Where does the ocean go?

Does anybody know?
Where does the ocean go?
