My heart was broken in two My love could never be true She left me here alone She made the sea a cold, cold home Under the waves, under the waves That's where I make my watery grave Under the waves, under the waves You know I sleep under the waves Sarah was her name And that girl said I'd be her flame We had a date that night She said meet me At the beach in the pale, pale moonlight Oh well I never meant to do her harm But I caught her in another guy's arms Under the waves, under the waves That's where I make my watery grave Under the waves, under the waves I'm gonna sleep under the waves Into the blue where everything's quiet I took my baby's life The same way she took my heart away My hands held her down My love, bound Floated down under the water She caused me to come and join her Under the waves, under the waves That's where I make my watery grave Under the waves under the waves Yeah I'm gonna sleep under the waves
