Lyrics
Come back my friend
Where are you now
We're joining our hands
Waiting somehow
And if you need is a light
Every night we'll be here
Lightning a fire
Write us a message
Give us some news
Send it to the village
Where you still have your roots
Where there're still some children
Singing your song
Under the sun
I hope one day
You'll remember that song
Cause it's not to late
For you to come home
You still have a bed
In every houses here
And you still have a friend
Down by the sea
Your sister Mary
Is missing you too
She just had a baby
Who's got the same eyes as as you
You younger brothers
Are sharing your dream
One day they'll leave us
Since you're away
It's even harder
To fight every day
The gap's getting bigger
As you can see
Things aren't better
Down by the sea
I hope one day
You'll remember that song
Cause it's not to late
For you to come home
To many friends
Have lost their life
So many men
Have left their wife
With tears in their eyes
Down by the sea
We still hope to see you back from abroad
Maybe you're gone but you still belong here
Can you please send a letter we just need to know
How are things for you now that you're living your dream
Do you work in an office wearing a suit
Do you have your own car a small Japanese
Do you have many friends do they listen to you
As we used to do here down by the sea
