By The Sapphire Sea
Composer(s): Harry B. Smith; Francis Wheeler; Ted Snyder



Somewhere over there by the Sapphire Sea
the whispering palm trees are calling me 
to skies ever blue
there alone with you
is where I am longing to be
The world we'll forget and your lips and eyes
will show me the way to love's paradise
to that land of summertime far away
I'm going to take you someday

On that sunny island, the roses rare
are blooming to give us a welcome there
and we'll be alone, in a world our own 
forgetting all trouble and care
We'll watch by the sea while the sails go by
till the stars shine above in the evening sky
you'll rest in my arms while the moon beams bright
and dream through the midsummer night

Merrily we'll sail upon the Sapphire Sea
to a little isle where happy we will be where moon beams bright
kiss you each night beside the silver waves we'll be together
While the stars are shining through the waving palms
sweetheart, I will hold you in my loving arms and life will seem
just like a dream, with you beside the Sapphire Sea
