ocean song

Singer:ben howard

been here staring

staring at the rain too long

winter cold burning at my toes

seems like everything

everything i'm doing's going wrong somehow

feeling blue everywhere that i go

and i'm trying

trying yeah

to remember her grace

trying

trying oh

to recapture her words so pure

ooh

the lines on her face

honey

what the hell are we doing this for?

what the hell are we doing this for at all?

found her letter under a stone

told of giants

kings

palaces and gold

palaces and gold

somewhere

somewhere over the horizon

i swear

i swear i'm going out there

to find them

to find them

oh

i'm going to the ocean

no no no

answer some of these questions that have been pulling me down

all this time

over mountains

mountains of black and white

till i know

know what i've found here

till i know

know what i've found here

darling

won't you wait for me?

darling

won't you be there standing at the shore

cause i'll be coming home

coming home soon

coming home

darling i'll be coming home to you

been here trying

trying to kill my head

dreaming of words

words my father always said to me

he said don't

don't be afraid of the dark sometimes

in your hours of hurt

so that's when you'll find

how strong a heart can be

how beautiful the summer breeze

how carefree is the seabird as it flies

how much i really need

yeah

i'm going to the ocean

no no no

answer some of these questions that have been pulling me down

all this time

over mountains

mountains of black and white

till i know

know what i've found here

till i know

know what i've found here

darling

won't you wait for me?

darling

won't you be there standing at the shore

cause i'll be coming home

coming home soon

coming home

darling i'll be coming home to you

i'll be coming home

coming home soon

coming home

darling i'll be coming home to you
