Stairway to the Sea (Scalinatella)

flamenco guitar backing throughout
 Deep in the night I climb the stairway to the sea
 And pretend you are there beside me, so close beside me, watching the sea
 I see us there upon the stairway to the sea
 Where the mist softly kissed two lovers, hiding from others our love by the sea
 CHORUS
 Why try to find a new love when your voice keeps calling me?
 I'm just a lonely pris'ner of the stairway to the sea
 And there you'll find me waiting for the day of your return
 But till that day how memories can burn
 This is my prayer upon the stairway to the sea
 That you soon will be there before me, whisp'ring "Adore me" there by the sea
 instrumental first two lines of CHORUS
 And there you'll find me waiting for the day of your return
 But till that day how memories can burn
 This is my prayer upon the stairway to the sea
 That you soon will be there before me, whisp'ring "Adore me" there by the sea
 There by the sea
 There by the sea!
