Ocean - Polly Paulusma

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 ooh, bobbing on this ocean

You rise and fall with every ebb and flow

And I say ooh, 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 ooh, bobbing on this ocean

You rise and fall with every ebb and flow

And I say ooh, quiet in the commotion

I’ll be your rock, just hang on and don’t let go

Ooh, see it in slow motion

Warm skies above and a firm footing down below

Ooh, 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

If I could only see you

If I could only see you
