said goodbye for the summer   that to my surprise   has turned into a lifetime      if I had known then that   you were the price I’d pay   I would have stayed      so glad I didn’t know   but I miss the sea   and I miss seeing you so      send me some saltwater   send me some saltwater   send me some saltwater   and I will cry my salty tears back to you      I hear the words you spoke   those final words   as if you were here      "don't go, I think I love you"   but I miss the sea   and I miss seeing you so...      oh Bluenose has sailed away   leaving me behind   all I have to hold on to   is the silver silhouette on a dime   the place I used to call mine   is now where I vacation from time to time      farewell to Nova Scotia, the seaboard coast   may your mountains dark and dreary be   for when I am far away   from the briny ocean tossed   will you heave a sign for me oh   but I miss the sea   and I miss seeing you so...
