Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
But the ghost of you asking me why
The sun and the moon, an ocean of air
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
And so many faces, I don't know the names
I carry your image always in my head
Sixes and sevens, we live on jet planes
The ocean rows us away
All of these moments are lost in time
Why did I leave?
I wonder do you still think of me
And I've look upon it for so many years
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
So many voices and nothing is there
Slowly I'm losing your face
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
So many friends now and none of them mine
The ocean rows us away
The ocean rows us away
Oh, the ocean rows us away, away, away
Took forever to amend me and I wonder why
The ocean rows us 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
Forgotten as soon as we meet
