Oceans of Pain
Thought I was done
When threw your words that morning
Thought you could run
Away without a warning
Thought you’re the one
For whom I’d ever mourn and –
Thought I was done
My fears, at first
Have knocked me nearly senseless, and
My tears have burst
I thank you for the lesson –
Best and worst
I cursed you then, and now I’m blessing
Thought I was blind
But now – never mind
Oceans of pain
You made my heart to live in
Never remain
Forgotten and forgiven
Breaking your chain
I’m flying away
To rise up again
Oceans of pain
And please – no more excuses
Now what I gain –
You will forever lose it
Sprouts of my grain
Will rise and sustain
In oceans of pain
Thought I would long
For you to come for years
Thought that my song
Would tail away in tears
Thought I was strong
But only when you’re near
Baby, you’re wrong
Baby, you’re wrong
I learned to leave
Behind unwanted and unneeded
Burned my grief –
And heart is no more bleeding
I believe
That we’ve done wrong, but never pleading
So much – to find
And now – never mind
Oceans of pain
You made my heart to live in
Never remain
Forgotten and forgiven
Breaking your chain
I’m flying away
To rise up again
Oceans of pain
And please – no more excuses
Now what I gain –
You will forever lose it
Sprouts of my grain
Will rise and sustain
In oceans of pain
My fears, at first,
Have knocked me nearly senseless, and
My tears have burst
I thank you for the lesson –
Best and worst
I cursed you then, and now I’m blessing
Thought I was blind
But now – never mind
Oceans of pain
You made my heart to live in
Never remain
Forgotten and forgiven
Breaking your chain
I’m flying away
To rise up again
Oceans of pain
And please – no more excuses
Now what I gain –
You will forever lose it
Sprouts of my grain
Will rise and sustain
In oceans of pain
