lyrics
OCEAN
Swim out! Not waving but drowning, I can feel you crying though they tell me you're fine. Swim out! Just keep treading water; if I could only see you, I could throw you a line.
And I say oh, bobbing on this ocean, you rise and fall with every ebb and flow and I say oh, quiet in the commotion, I'll be your rock and that's all you need to know.
Swim out! Out, through all my faults and all the stupid things that I have said and done. Swim out! Find a place to shelter from the grilled confessional, the gilted gun.
And I say oh, bobbing on this ocean, you rise and fall with every ebb and flow and I say oh, quiet in the commotion, I'll be your rock, just hang on and don't let go! Oh, see it in slow motion, warm skies above and a firm footing down below! Oh, you can be my ocean, I'll be your rock and that's all you need to know.
Swim out! Not waving but drowning, I can feel you crying though they tell me you're fine. Swim out! Just keep treading water; if I could only see you…
Swim out! Not waving but drowning, I can feel you crying though they tell me you're fine. Swim out! Just keep treading water; if I could only see you, I could throw you a line.
And I say oh, bobbing on this ocean, you rise and fall with every ebb and flow and I say oh, quiet in the commotion, I'll be your rock and that's all you need to know.
Swim out! Out, through all my faults and all the stupid things that I have said and done. Swim out! Find a place to shelter from the grilled confessional, the gilted gun.
And I say oh, bobbing on this ocean, you rise and fall with every ebb and flow and I say oh, quiet in the commotion, I'll be your rock, just hang on and don't let go! Oh, see it in slow motion, warm skies above and a firm footing down below! Oh, you can be my ocean, I'll be your rock and that's all you need to know.
Swim out! Not waving but drowning, I can feel you crying though they tell me you're fine. Swim out! Just keep treading water; if I could only see you…
