Ocean Song by Ben Howard Lyrics
Been here staring, staring at the rain to long now
Winter coal burning at my toes
Seems like everything, everything I do is going wrong somehow
Feeling blue everywhere that I go
And I'm trying, trying yeah to remember her grace
Trying, trying oh to recapture her words so pure
All the lines on her face
Honey what what the hell are we doing this for?
What the hell are we doing this for at all?
Found a letter under a stone
Oh, told of giants, kings, oh palaces and gold, palaces and gold Somewhere, somewhere over the horizon
I swear, I swear I'm going out there to find them
To find them
Oh I'm going to the ocean no, no ,no
Answer some of these questions that have been dragging me down
All this time
Over mountains, mountains of black and white, white
Til I know, know what I've found here
Til I know, know what I've found here
Darling won't you wait for me?
Darling won't you be there standing there at the shore?
Cause I'll be coming home, coming home soon
Coming home, darling I'll be coming home to you
Been here trying, trying to clear my head
Oh dreaming of words, words my father always said to me
Said "dont, dont be afraid of the dark sometimes
In your hours of hurt, son thats when you'll find
How strong a heart can be
How beautiful the summer breeze
How carefree is a sea bird as it flies
How much you really need"
Oh I'm going to the ocean no, no ,no
Answer some of these questions that have been dragging me down
All this time
Over mountains, mountains of black and white, white
Til I know, know what I've found here
Til I know, know what I've found here
Oh darling won't you wait for me?
Darling won't you be there standing there at the shore?
Cause I'll be coming home, coming home soon
Coming home, darling I'll be coming home to you
Coming home, I'll be coming home soon
Coming home, darling I'll be coming home to you
Winter coal burning at my toes
Seems like everything, everything I do is going wrong somehow
Feeling blue everywhere that I go
And I'm trying, trying yeah to remember her grace
Trying, trying oh to recapture her words so pure
All the lines on her face
Honey what what the hell are we doing this for?
What the hell are we doing this for at all?
Found a letter under a stone
Oh, told of giants, kings, oh palaces and gold, palaces and gold Somewhere, somewhere over the horizon
I swear, I swear I'm going out there to find them
To find them
Oh I'm going to the ocean no, no ,no
Answer some of these questions that have been dragging me down
All this time
Over mountains, mountains of black and white, white
Til I know, know what I've found here
Til I know, know what I've found here
Darling won't you wait for me?
Darling won't you be there standing there at the shore?
Cause I'll be coming home, coming home soon
Coming home, darling I'll be coming home to you
Been here trying, trying to clear my head
Oh dreaming of words, words my father always said to me

Til I know, know what I've found here
Oh darling won't you wait for me?
Darling won't you be there standing there at the shore?
Cause I'll be coming home, coming home soon
Coming home, darling I'll be coming home to you
Coming home, I'll be coming home soon
Coming home, darling I'll be coming home to you
