And I've look upon it for so many years
But the ghost of you asking me why
The ocean rows us away
Slowly I'm losing your face
Sixes and sevens, we live on jet planes
The ocean rows us away
And so many faces, I don't know the names
I wonder do you still think of me
So many friends now and none of them mine
Why did I leave?
The ocean rows us away
So many voices and nothing is there
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
But you're caught in my head like a thorn on a vine
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
Do I wish I've never known you at all
Is one where I stayed with you across the sea
I carry your image always in my head
Took forever to amend me and I wonder why
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
The ocean rows us away
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
The sun and the moon, an ocean of air
