On the Ocean Songtext
von Guster

Am I asleep?
Is this a dream?
Oh my god, what have I done?
Anything?

At twenty-three,
You walked out on me.
Oh my god, where have you gone?
Anyway?

On the ocean,
I think I′m taking on water.
The storm is on the way,
But I will hold on anyway.

Ten thousand leagues,
Under the sea,
Oh my god, what have you done?
Anything?


Twenty nine years,
I've wondered around,
There′s no beauty here,
No emerald town,
I shall all?, what will be forgotten?
Everything?

On the ocean,
I think I'm taking on water.
The storm is on the way,
But I will hold on anyway.

I close my eyes and there's someone beside me.
Hand in hand we can only speak in tongues.
She′s pulling me along.

Follow′n down, a trail of crumbs behind me,
My head's in her hands,
But everything, it still feels wrong.
This isn′t what I thought,
So can I just go home?

Am I asleep?
Is this a dream?
Oh my God, what have I done?
Anything?


(On the ocean)
Ten thousand leagues,
(I think I'm taking on water)
Under the sea,
(The storm is on the way)
Oh my God, what have you done?
(Where have you been?)
Anything?
On the ocean . . .
