The Sea Is The Place The sea is the place, Where the sand talks.

The sea is the place, Where the sand talks, Where the beach gazes.

The sea is the place, Where the sand talks, Where the beach gazes, Where the sand is the sun.

The sea is the place, Where the sand talks, Where the beach gazes, Where the sand is the sun. Where the water makes you thirsty. The sea is the place, Where the sand talks, Where the beach gazes, Where the sand is the sun. Where the water makes you thirsty, And where I play.

The sea is the place where I’m meant to be. Robert Testo (12)
