OCEAN OF TEARS
I swore I’d never shed me a teardrop
The mornin’ that you gave me the news
Now I’m up to my knees in salt water.
I’m soakin’ wet and baby I’m sure it can’t be good for my shoes
You really got me singin’ the blues
CHORUS
Mountain of heartache, ocean of tears
Cold lover’s scar that you carry for years and years
Sail away, sail away, sail away
Upon an ocean of tears
I thought that I was over the poison
I thought that I was makin’ out fine
But I woke up from dreamin’ about you again
I’m broken hearted honey and it’s gonna drive me out of my mind.
'Cause it’s all been a big waste of time
CHORUS
Mountain of heartache, ocean of tears
Cold lover’s scar that you carry for years and years
Sail away, sail away, sail away
Upon an ocean of tears
BRIDGE
Sailin’ away on an ocean of tears
Sailin’ away on an ocean of tears
Sailin’ away on an ocean of tears
SOLO
I don’t wanna ask you all the wrong questions
I don’t wanna step on anyone’s toes
I’m too worried and scared I’m gonna drive you away
And too frightened to be livin’ out a “what if” scenario
I really don’t know which way to go
CHORUS
Mountain of heartache, ocean of tears
Cold lover’s scar that you carry for years and years
Sail away, sail away, sail away
Upon an ocean
Away, sail away, sail away
Upon an ocean
Away, sail away, sail away
Upon an ocean of tears
(Bop it out.)
