Oh
(Yeah)
I thought you said you loved the ocean
When we were standing at the shore
You didn't even dip your toes in,
But I believed you, just took your arm
When you lie to me I smile (Uh)
Cause I don't know how much we've got (Yeah)
When I look back at the pictures I can remember things that were not
I used to try to make believe you were the other half of me
Tell myself you made me better so I never had to leave (Uh)
All the while I'm swimming and you're watching from the beach
I thought you said you loved the ocean
By the time I'm back in Boston (Uh)
You'll be home in California (Yeah)
And by the time you finally want me
I won't be close enough to keep you warm (Yeah)
And that's my problem with emotion
There's no controlling where it goes
One more drop is overflowing,
Your glass is broken, can't see me anymore
I used to try to make believe you were the other half of me (Yeah)
Tell myself I made you better so I never had to leave (Uh)
All the while I'm swimming and you're watching from the beach
I thought you said you loved the ocean
I thought you said you loved me
Oh
I'll give you an inkling, toss you a notion
Oh
I'll give you an inkling, toss you a notion
I used to try to make believe you were the other half of me
Tell myself you made me better so I never had to leave
All the while I'm swimming and you're watching from the beach
I thought you said you loved the ocean
I thought you said you loved me
