I'm singing songs about the ocean
|
And every night's a lullaby
|
To the coastal breeze and the salty seas
|
I've never felt so far from home
|
And as we cast on through these mountains
|
I keep my back to western skies
|
Where the sun it seems to always sleep
|
Where I wish I was going
|
|
She's the sea, she's the hardest thing to leave
|
I wish that she would notice, but the sea will never notice
|
Jolene, Jolene, that's what she sang to me
|
But it ain't nothing but her favorite country song
|
|
So this old van becomes a vessel
|
A beast of burden and a home
|
But those eastern shores are never yours
|
|
Where I wish I was going
|
Going, going
|
|
She's the sea, she's the hardest thing to leave
|
I wish that she would notice, but the sea will never notice
|
Jolene, Jolene, that's what she sang to me
|
But it ain't nothing but her favorite country song
|
|
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
|
But it ain't nothing, no it ain't nothing
|
