Lyrics

Sue Peters (c) 2021

When I look out at the sea, there’s a memory for me
Of a brave young lad with dreams and his whole life ahead

On a cold day in November, with sorrow we remember
When his ship set sail for Belfast from Montreal

In the convoy they were safe, The SS Bradfyne made it’s way
A Merchant Ship with a cargo hold of grain

Then the Captain said let’s go, we’ll head out on our own
And off the coast of Ireland they went down

So many lives were lost when the ship pitched and tossed
As the water rose, the young lad tapped a final SOS

His parents could not bear that they’d never see him there
At the piano, fingers dancing on the keys

They never gave up hope, that one day he’d come home
And waited patiently for him to walk through the door

When I look out at the sea, there’s a memory for me
Of a brave young lad whose dreams were swept away
