Mayer: This songs pretty angry...
|
|
We spotted the ocean
|
At the head of the trail
|
Where are we goin'
|
So far away
|
And somebody told me
|
That this is the place
|
Where everything's better
|
And everything's 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
|
We said we'd send letters
|
And all of those little things
|
And they knew we were lyin'
|
But they smiled just the same
|
It seemed they'd already
|
Forgotten we came
|
|
(CHORUS X 2)
|
|
Back at the homestead
|
Where the air makes you choke
|
And people don't know you
|
And trust is a joke
|
We don't even have pictures
|
Just memories to hold
|
grows sweeter each season
|
as we slowly grow old
|
|
