When I left you I was an ocean But now I am so dry Don't look for me over the mountains The mountains are just too high And don't look inside a bottle For there I have come and gone Just look over your shoulder darling I might be there before too long When I left you I was righteous But I've learned now to be wrong Don't look for me tomorrow Tomorrow is just too long And don't look in my old letters Even diamonds turn to dust Don't shackle me with those chains of gold All my gold has turned to rust All my gold has turned to rust When I left you I was an ocean But now I am so dry Don't look for me over the mountains The mountains are just too high The mountains are just too high
