You spotted the ocean

At the head of the trail

Where are we going?

So far away

Somebody told me

That this is the place

Where everything's better

And everythings safe



(chorus)

Walk on the Ocean

Step on the stones

Flesh becomes water

Wood becomes bone



Half an hour later

We packed up our things

Said we'd send letters

And all those little things

They knew we were lying

They smiled just the same

Seemed they'd already forgotten we came



Chorus X2



Back at the homestead

Where the air makes you choke

People don't know you

And trust is a joke

Don't even have pictures

Just memories to hold

That grow sweeter each season

As we slowly grow old!
