I Sat By The Ocean

(album: ...Like Clockwork - 2013)

I sat by the ocean and drank a potion, baby to erase you.
Face down in the Boulevard, yet I couldn't face you.
There ain't no use in crying. It doesn't change anything,
So baby what good does it do?
Your friends, they all sympathize.
Maybe, I don't need them too.

Imagine I'd be your one and only
Instead I'm the lonely one

You, me and a lie.
Silence is closer.
We're passing ships in the night.

There's nowhere to run away.
Said,
“Boy if you want love, you'll have to go and find it with someone new.”
“Do you know who you really are? Are you sure it's really you?”
Lies are a funny thing.
They slip through your fingertips because they never happened to you.
Time wounds all the heals as we fade out of view.

Imagine I'd be your one and only
Instead I'm the lonely one

You, me and a lie.
Silence is closer.
We're passing ships in the night.

You, me and a lie.
Silence is closer.
We're passing ships in the night.

Into the night,
Left with nowhere to hide.

Closer and closer.
We're crashing ships in the night
