Decide I'm gonna make myself
|
A little something to eat
|
Get can down off the shelf
|
Maybe a little something sweet
|
|
Haven't spoken to no one
|
Haven't been in the mood
|
Pour some soup, get a spoon and
|
Stir it up real good
|
|
I go out with a friend
|
Maybe a little music might help
|
But I can't pretend
|
I wish I was somewhere else
|
|
I wanna watch the ocean bend
|
the edges of the sun then
|
I wanna get swallowed up in
|
An ocean of love
|
|
Put on my coat
|
Go out into the street
|
Get a lump in my throat
|
And look down at my feet
|
|
Take the long way home
|
So I can ride around
|
Put Neil Young on
|
And turn up the sound
|
|
Drive up the coastline
|
Maybe Ventura
|
Watch the waves make signs
|
Out on the water
|
|
I wanna watch the ocean bend
|
the edges of the sun then
|
I wanna get swallowed up in
|
An ocean of love
|
|
Stand in the shower
|
Clean this dirty mess
|
Give me back my power
|
And drown this unholiness
|
|
Lean over the toilet bowl
|
And throw up my confession
|
Cleanse my soul
|
Of this hidden obsession
|
|
I wanna watch the ocean bend
|
the edges of the sun then
|
I wanna get swallowed up in
|
An ocean of love
|
|
I wanna watch the ocean bend
|
the edges of the sun then
|
I wanna get swallowed up in
|
An ocean of love
|
