The Storms Are On the Ocean

Lyrics

I'm going away to leave you, love
 I'm going away for a while
 But I'll return to you some time
 If I go 10, 000 miles
 The storms are on the ocean
 The heavens may cease to be
 This world may lose its motion, love
 If I prove false to thee
 Oh, who will dress your pretty little feet
 Oh, who will glove your hand
 Who will kiss your rosy red cheeks
 When I'm in the far off land
 The storms are on the ocean
 The heavens may cease to be
 This world may lose its motion, love
 If I prove false to thee
 Oh, papa will dress my pretty little feet
 And mama will glove my hand
 You can kiss my rosy red cheeks
 When you return again
 The storms are on the ocean
 The heavens may cease to be
 This world may lose its motion, love
 If I prove false to thee
 Oh, have you seen those mournful doves
 Flying from pine to pine
 A-mourning for their own true loves
 Just like I mourn for mine
 The storms are on the ocean
 The heavens may cease to be
 This world may lose its motion, love
 If I prove false to thee
 I'll never go back on the ocean, love
 I'll never go back on the sea
 I'll never go back on the blue-eyed girl
 Till she goes back on me
 The storms are on the ocean
 The heavens may cease to be
 This world may lose its motion, love
 If I prove false to thee
