Once Upon a Time There Was an Ocean - Paul Simon[00:00:00]

Written by：Paul Simon/Brian Eno[00:00:01]

Once upon a time there was an ocean[00:00:19]

But now it's a mountain range[00:00:23]

Something unstoppable set into motion[00:00:28]

Nothing is different but everything's changed[00:00:33]

It's a dead end job and you gets tired of sittin'[00:00:46]

And it's like a nicotine habit you're[00:00:50]

Always thinking about quittin' and[00:00:53]

I think about quittin' every day of the week[00:00:56]

When I look out my window it's brown and it's bleak[00:01:00]

Outta here[00:01:05]

How am I gonna get outta here[00:01:06]

I'm thinking outta here[00:01:09]

When am I gonna get outta here[00:01:11]

And when will I cash in my lottery ticket[00:01:14]

And bury my past with my burdens and strife[00:01:19]

I want to shake every limb in the garden of EDEN[00:01:23]

And make every love the love of my life[00:01:29]

I figure that once upon a time I was an ocean[00:01:32]

But now I'm a mountain range[00:01:37]

Something unstoppable set into motion[00:01:42]

Nothing is different but everything's changed[00:01:47]

Found a room in the heart of the city down by the bridge[00:01:57]

Hot plate and TV and beer in the fridge[00:02:01]

But I'm easy I'm open that's my gift[00:02:06]

I can flow with the traffic I can drift with the drift[00:02:10]

Home again[00:02:15]

Naw never going home again[00:02:16]

Think about home again[00:02:19]

I never think about home[00:02:21]

But then comes a letter from home[00:02:23]

The handwriting's fragile and strange[00:02:29]

Something unstoppable set into motion[00:02:34]

Nothing is different but everything's changed[00:02:39]

The light through the stained glass was cobalt and red[00:02:59]

And the frayed cuffs and collars were[00:03:08]

Mended by haloes of golden thread[00:03:12]

The choir sang once upon a time there was an ocean[00:03:16]

And all the old hymns and family names came[00:03:21]

Fluttering down as leaves of emotion[00:03:26]

As nothing is different but everything's changed[00:03:31]
