The Ocean - Dar Williams[00:00:00]

When I went to your town[00:00:09]

On the wide open shore[00:00:11]

Oh I must confess I was drawn[00:00:16]

I was drawn to the ocean[00:00:18]

I thought it spoke to me It said "Look at us[00:00:21]

We're not churches not schools[00:00:25]

Not skating ponds swimming pools[00:00:27]

And we have lost people haven't we though "[00:00:30]

Oh that's what the ocean can know of a body[00:00:35]

And that's when I came back to town[00:00:39]

This town is a song about you[00:00:43]

You don't know how lucky you are[00:00:46]

You don't know how much I adore you[00:00:50]

You are the welcoming back from the ocean[00:00:54]

I went back to the ocean today[00:01:05]

With my books and my papers[00:01:10]

I went to the rocks by the ocean[00:01:12]

But the weather changed quickly[00:01:15]

Oh the ocean said "What are you trying to find[00:01:18]

I don't care I'm not kind[00:01:22]

I've bludgeoned your sailors[00:01:23]

I've spat out their keepsakes[00:01:26]

Oh it's ashes to ashes but always the ocean"[00:01:29]

But the ocean can't come to this town[00:01:34]

This town is a song about you[00:01:37]

You don't know how lucky you are[00:01:41]

You don't know how much I adore you[00:01:44]

You are the welcoming back from the ocean[00:01:48]

And the ones that can know you so well[00:02:23]

Are the ones that can swallow you whole[00:02:26]

I have a good and I have an evil[00:02:30]

I thought the ocean the ocean thought nothing[00:02:33]

You are the welcoming back from the ocean[00:02:38]

I didn't go back today I wanted to show you[00:02:49]

That I was more land than water[00:02:54]

I went to pick flowers I brought them to you[00:02:57]

Look at me look at them with their salt up the stem[00:03:01]

But you frowned when I smiled and I tried to arrange them[00:03:05]

You said "Let me tell you the song of this town"[00:03:12]

You said "Everything closes at five[00:03:17]

After that well you just got the bars"[00:03:19]

You don't know how precious you are[00:03:23]

Walking around with your little shoes dangling[00:03:26]

I am the one who lives with the ocean[00:03:30]

It's where we came from you know[00:03:35]

And sometimes I just want to go back[00:03:37]

After a day we drink 'till we're drowning[00:03:40]

Walk to the ocean wade in with our workboots[00:03:44]

Wade in our workboots try to finish the job[00:03:48]

You don't know how precious you are[00:03:52]

I am the one who lives with the ocean[00:03:56]

You don't know how I am the one[00:03:59]

You don't know how I am the one[00:04:03]
