I  climbed up a mountain,  and looked  off the edge
At  all of the lives that  I  never have led
There's  one where I stayed  with you across  the sea
I  wonder do you still think  of me
I  carry your image  always  in my head
Folded  and yellowed and torn  at the edge
And  I've looked upon  it for so  many years
Slowly  I am losing your  face
Oh  the  ocean rolls us away, away, away
 The ocean  rolls us away
 Six's and seven's we live on jet planes
 So many faces I don't know the names
 So many friends now and none of them mine
 Forgotten as soon as we meet
 All of these moments are lost in time
 Your caught in my head like a thorn on a vine
 To forever torment me and I wonder why
 Do I wish I'd never known you at all
 Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
 The ocean rolls us away
 (Play verse chords, and then)
The  sun and the  moon, An  ocean of  air
So  many voices, But  nothing is there
The  ghost of you  asking me  why, Why did I leave?
 Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
 And I lose your hand through the waves
 Song ends on an E chord. Enjoy!
