As I Stare at the Ocean Alone Songtext
von Orphaned Land

I gazed into your eyes as the train left
And never wrote one single time
Deep in my heart I remember
And cry, as faces pass me by

Drowned in the loss of the city
From out of the ashes came hope
I lived in an old dirty building
Just like the one that no one knows

Small room yet here I found shelter
And these walls are a place I call home
Mournful my mornings forever
As I stare at the ocean alone


From high above... for a sign out in the cold
And I′ll fly, as a dove
As I stare at the ocean alone

Misty December, the 50's
I shiver from the wind that blows
Show on my room seems so empty
So white, yet I remember all...

Forever my wounds to be open
Oh how I wish you were by my side
I′ll play and we'll sing this together
These words that letters can't describe

Here you′ll find shelter and safety
Through the storm, a heaven will rise
Children will sing and it makes me feel
Embraced by the Mediterranean Sea


From high above... for a sign out in the cold
And I′ll fly, as a dove
As I stare at the ocean alone
