[11thCW] "THE SEA", A SONG BY HAEVN

To signal the beginning of our 11th Cultural Week devoted to THE SEA, here's a song in English with the same title by a Dutch band called Haevn (founded in 2015 by singer-songwriter Marijn van der Meer and composer Jorrit Kleijnen. The band currently also includes guitarist Bram Doreleijers, bass player Mart Jeninga, and drummer David Broeders.)





Lyrics of the song:

Sunrays touch the coastline Warm the cotton, show the dust The long nights are gone with the river The water's been waiting long enough We float on the river of time Hold steady, hold steady The sea comes cause the summer forced out the cold The boat fought the change of the tides Hold steady, hold steady Storm for hours, and rainy days And all our lives we're told The stream will take us home Sunrays touch the coastline Warm our feet, show the glare We walk through the sand in the warm night The water will take the weight from us And all our lives we're told The stream will take us home And all our lives we're told The stream will take us home We sold our lives to the sea The sky lights up from the beach
