Lyrics:
Deep blue water falls down
and the wind turns around
Seek the mountains, feel the tide
Some were born to run, while I fly
Deep blue water come and go
and through this time currents flow
Destiny, seek the ride
Some were born to run
I!
Fly!
You can feel them roll
You can feel them roll
You can feel them roll
In Deep! Blue! Water!
