Oceans Away |
| I hung out with the old folks, in the hope that I’d get wise. |
| I was trying to bridge the gap, between the great divide. |
| Hung on every recollection, in the theater of their eyes |
| Picking up on this and that, in the few that still survive. |
| Call em up Dust em off |
| Let em shine |
| The ones who hold onto the the ones, they had to leave behind |
| Those that flew, those that fell, |
| The ones that had to stay |
| Beneath a little wooden cross |
| Oceans away |
| They bend like trees in winter, these shuffling old gray lions |
| Though snow white start to gather, like the belt around Orion. |
| Just a touch of faded lightning, of the powerful design, |
| Of the generation gathered, for maybe the last time. |
| Call em up Dust em off |
| Let em shine |
| The ones who hold onto the the ones, they had to leave behind |
| Those that flew, those that fell, |
| The ones that had to stay |
| Beneath a little wooden cross |
| Oceans away |
| Oceans away where the green grass sways and the cool wind blows across the |
| shadow of their graves. |
| shoulder to shoulder, back in the day, sleeping bones to rest in Earth |
| Oceans away |
| Oceans away |
| Call em up Dust em off |
| Let em shine |
| The ones who hold onto the the ones, they had to leave behind |
| Those that flew, those that fell, |
| The ones that had to stay |
| Beneath a little wooden cross |
| Oceans away |
