Ocean

Your life is the ocean And your heart is a wave Like a dog in the sun I found my peace in your storm As I sail for days I keep drowning away Would my sailors forgive me For feeling this way? You said, "Hey, Mister! Do follow through Let's go and build a house Big enough to fit us two We'll weave a castle there The castle of our dreams My knight in dining armour And I your blanket queen" Girl, you're just like that pretty house With wooden beams, you're facing south You are my shelter, you are my little home Your walls are painted pink and green With a hint of tangerine I see a crack in the window I'm waking up to hold you Your blemishes, all your tragedies are mine 'Cause your life is the ocean And your heart is a wave Like a dog in the sun I found my peace in your storm As I sail for days I keep drowning away Would my sailors forgive me For feeling this way? As days turn into years Got more than I deserved There's so much left to learn As I flip through your pages As sweet as crème brûlée These memories we've made Now let me take your hand And offer a lifetime 'Cause, darling, all these years have gone Just as the tree we sat upon So afraid to fall, the way we laughed We made it through My sailors, they have come 'round Their ballads bring a different sound I guess they all have drowned in love with you The way I have too 'Cause your life is the ocean And your heart the biggest wave Like a dog in the sun I found my peace in your storm As I sail for days I keep on drowning, drowning away Would the gods forgive me For feeling this way?
