Home by the Sea Songtext
von Mel Tormé

This is a wonderful song ladies and gentlemen that′s never been performed in public before
It was written by a gentleman who wrote the great Broadway Show, called "Make My Man Happy"
His name is Richard Lewin and he is a direct cousin to Richard Rogers the great songwriter
And I think this incidentally is a song certainly worthy of the Rogers Tradition
It's called "Home By The Sea", I′ve never sung it before so if I goof
Nobody blame me please, here we go


In a home by the sea, we'll live the life of sailor folk
Laugh at all the paler folk in some city cave
In a home by the sea, we'll watch the ships go gliding on
While you and I are riding on the crest of a wave
Free and unhurried, primitive and unworried

We will live in deluxe luxury
There will always be a beach to come by the sea
And when they turn the tide again
I′ll turn and kiss the bride again
And if you should call, almost any time at all
I′ll be home, in our home by the sea
By the sea

That's called "Home By The Sea" ladies and gentlemen
Thank you
