A pale blue day rising As I'm sailing away from the scene of the crime Just a few more miles and We're strangers again No traces behind me Yeah, the water will sweep away the blood and the gold I wait for big waves to find me And hope afloat we hold Such a shimmering misfortune Such a dark kind of bliss I'll cry rivers or oceans 'Til I get over it Such a shimmering misfortune Such a dark kind of bliss I'll cry rivers or oceans No shipwreck sensation You won't hear about it on the morning news As if the shore wasn't shaking Well, let's swim out one more time And if I dive deep down, will I find the spark
Will I come up with what I thought was lost Will I breathe easily Will I retrieve what was mine? Such a shimmering misfortune Such a dark kind of bliss I'll cry rivers or oceans 'Til I get over it Such a shimmering misfortune Such a dark kind of bliss I'll cry rivers or oceans (Such a shimmering misfortune) I'll cry rivers or oceans (Such a shimmering misfortune) 'Til I get over it (I'll cry rivers or oceans) 'Till I get over it (I'll cry rivers or oceans) Will it be rivers or oceans? (I'll cry rivers or oceans) 'Til I get over it (I'll cry rivers or oceans)
