Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come with me
To the sea of love
Come with me my love
To the sea the sea of love
I wanna tell you how much I love you
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you how much I love you
Come with me
To the sea of love
Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you how much I love you
Come with me
To the sea of love
Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you how much I love you
In Wilde Marty's song "Sea of Love," the lyrics are simple yet incredibly powerful. The song is a love ballad about finding someone special and wanting to share that love with them. The singer implores his beloved to come with him to the "sea of love," a metaphor for a place where their love can flourish and grow. He remembers the day they met and how he knew that she was the one for him, referring to her as his "pet" which was a common term of endearment in the 50s and 60s. He wants to express to her just how much he loves her, and the repetition of this sentiment emphasizes the intensity of his feelings.
The song has a nostalgic feel to it, evoking images of simpler times when romance was the most important thing in life. The gentle melody of the song complements the lyrics perfectly, making it an instant classic that has stood the test of time. The idea of a "sea of love" is a romantic one that has been used in many songs and poems over the years, but Wilde Marty's version is particularly memorable due to its simplicity and sincerity.

The best music ever was created from 1955 to 1965.

It’s about time Marty Wilde was given a Royal honour!
@sovaine
Marty Wilde never really got the recognition that he deserved...a true icon.
@dariowestern
He got the recognition, but it was sadly short lived once he got married to Joyce Baker. I bought his Running Wild album a few years ago, and it's brilliant. He still has the chops both as a performance and recording artist alike.
@jackiron4785
One of the rare occasions where a 50's British cover is better than the US original. Good vocals and high quality production values.
@sladlad
I agree, I also think his version of Donna was better than the original
@Kitandrox
Phil Philips and the Twilights were amazing, LOVE that version. However if I was on the other side of the pond in 1959 I probably would have a different opinion But give Phil's version a listen, amazing!!!! A lot more basic and down to earth Now I must listen to Donna, I read he had a version as well But Ritchie Valens's version, to me ,is impossible to beat I am a child of American 50's music!!!!! Both Marty versions are more dignified than the ones By Phil and Ritchie. I love "my" versions much more but both of Marty's are excellent as well It just depends on which side of the pond you were listening to these gems. The first notes of my versions can bring tears to my eyes. Glad to read Marty is still performing, not so with Ritchie and Phil. Long live late 50's rock and roll!!!
@Kitandrox
Marty's versions of Sea of Love and Donna are more 59ish sounding, Bobby Darin, Frankie Avolinish. Phi and Ritchie were much more basic 1958 sounding I love both But of course 1958 is my year and those versions are an intricate part of my life,!!!
@harryboggon8718
Marty was by far and away the best British Rock and Roll singer
