The lyrics for Beyond The Sea was composed by Jack Lawrence with the music taken from La Mer which means 'the sea' (composed by Charles Trenet). The French lyrics by Trenet are totally different from the English ones. The French lyrics pay homage to the changing moods of the sea. Lawrence, by adding the word 'beyond' made the song into a love song of one pining for his lost love.

  • La mer qu'on voit danser le long des golfes clairs, a des reflets d'argent , La mer de reflets changeants sous la pluie. La mer au ciel d'ete confond, ses blancs moutons, avec les anges si purs, la mer, bergere d'azur infinie. Voyez pres des etangs, ces grands roseaux mouilles. Voyez ces oiseaux blancs et ces maisons rouillees. La mer, les a berces le long des golfes clairs, et d'une chanson d'amour la mer, a berce mon coeur pour la vie.

  • I think the original French version is simply wonderful....
