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