Old ocean Thank you for holding me Won't be the same without you Facts on the move again Truths on the hoof they say Oh, can't you see It's lost in the everyday It slid so far away From you and me Old ocean Thank you for holding me Rocked by an endless motion Afloat in the ceaseless sea Won't be the same without you Loves on the loose again Long in the tooth they say Or lost at the sea Good has gone away It seems it's there to stay What will be will be Old ocean Thank you for holding me Rocked by an endless motion Afloat in the ceaseless sea Won't be the same without you Whether calm or weather stormy Whether green or blue Whether vain or whether haughty Whether win or lose Whether truth or just a story You can't pick or choose Whether blunt or whether thorny It's not up to you Old ocean Thank you for holding me Rocked by an endless motion Afloat in the ceaseless sea Won't be the same without you
