lyrics

Life is an Ocean
Full of emotion blue
Waves of devotion
Carry me through to you
I live on the higher ground
Where the air is clear and heartless Playing with the only sound
A life that is completely pointless
I have to say this time
That you mean nothing to me
I have to sing this line
That you take nothing from me And all you do is lie
When all my friends desert me The ocean stands before you Why don’t you, why don’t you cry
Life is an ocean blue
Deep as my love for you it seems Couldn’t be the only one
So lonely on the distant horizon
I’m walking through the human zoo Looking out not seeing you
Carry on walking, just carry on walking
I have to say this time
That you mean nothing to me
I have to sing this line
That you take nothing from me And all you do is lie
When all my friends desert me The ocean stands before you Why don’t you, why don’t you cry
Life is an ocean blue Life is an ocean blue Life is an ocean blue Life is an ocean blue Life is an ocean blue Living away from you Life is an ocean blue Living away from you
I have to say this time
That you mean nothing to me
I have to sing this line
That you take nothing from me
And all you do is lie
When all my friends desert me
The ocean stands before you
Why don’t you, why don’t you cry X 2
