Storms Are on the Ocean

I’m going away to leave you love
I’m going away for a while
But I’ll return to you sometime
If I go ten thousand miles
The storms are on the ocean
The heavens may cease to be
This world may lose its motion, love
If I prove false to thee
Oh, have you seen those mournful doves
Flying from pine to pine?
They’re mourning for their own true love
Just like I mourn for mine
The storms are on the ocean
The heavens may cease to be
This world may lose its motion, love
If I prove false to thee
I’ve cried myself to sleep each night
Thinking only of you
I wonder if you’ll wait for me
To me are you still true?
I’ll never go back on the ocean, love
I’ll never go back on the sea
No never go back on this blue-eyed girl
Say you’ll always love me
The storms are on the ocean
The heavens may cease to be
This world may lose its motion, love
If I prove false to thee.
