This is so nostalgic beyond the threshold of pain. "The sound of the seagulls distant cry,their wings like parentheses in the sky," what a lyric and even that's nostalgic as the blighters now swarm around inland city centres.
LYRICS LISTEN TO THE OCEAN
(Nina Möller / Frederik Von Pallandt)
Nina & Frederick - 1960
There's a world of sun and sand
Full of sky and far from land
Where evening breezes caress the shore
Like a gentle comforting hand
Fragrant blossoms, honey bees
Careless laughter upon the breeze
And lovers fading to pools of deep
Purple shadows among the trees
Listen to the ocean, echoes of a million seashells
Forever it's in motion
Moving to a rhythmic and unwritten music
That's played eternally
The sound of a seagull's distant cry
His wings like parentheses drawn in the sky
And two white birds clinging like foam
To the crest of a wave rolling by
The silence of noon, the clamour of night
The heat of the day when the fish won't bite
These are the things that remind me of
The day you sailed out of sight
Listen to the ocean, echoes of a million seashells
Forever it's in motion
Moving to a rhythmic and unwritten music
That's played eternally
Music from the time that music was really a lyric.
I always enjoy their music, because it is nice and melodious.
Thanks Nina and Frederic for bringing me such fine music.
Nina and Fredrick what a pleasure to her them again.They were the stars of the sixties.They were so glamorous,especially Nina;she was the dream of every young man at that time.Thank you for bringing back such happy memories.
