Lyrics for The Shining Sea

We loved the shining sea He gathered seashells there for me His hands, his strong brown hands We'd sit there on the sand He'd kiss the hollow of my hand His kiss, I miss his kiss I hear the gray gulls cry I see them dip their wings I feel the pounding surf And other things I can't believe he's gone I think I'll go where he might be I'll go, I need him so I need a shining sea
