So much for the leaving, so much for good timing
Surely this is not the way
Bound for open highways, broken headlights and dirt trails
And these towns look all the same
When I make it down to the ocean
I’ll toss the overcoat behind me and jump on in
Hear the hum of the tides in motion
Let the waves wash away my failure
To come back new again
In silent sorrow, comprehending nature
Angel of mercy watches over me
The dreams I cling to, just far enough out of reach
That’s the beauty of a dream
When I make it down to the ocean
I’ll toss the overcoat behind me and jump on in
Hear the hum of the tides in motion
Let the waves wash away my failure
To come back new again
When I make it down to the ocean
I’ll toss the overcoat behind me and jump on in
Hear the hum of the tides in motion
And the waves wash away my failure
To come back new again
