When I went to your town on the wide open shore,
Oh I must confess, I was drawn, I was drawn to the ocean,
I thought it spoke to me, it said, "Look at us,
We're not churches, not schools, not skating ponds, swimming pools,
And we have lost people, haven't we though?"
Oh, that's what the ocean can know of a body,
And that's when I came back to town, this town is a song about you.
You don't know how lucky you are, you don't know how much I adore you,
You are the welcoming back from the ocean.

I went back to the ocean today,
With my books and my papers I went to the rocks by the ocean,
But the weather changed quickly, oh the ocean said,
"What are you trying to find? I don't care, I'm not kind,
I've bludgeoned your sailors, I've spat out their keepsakes,
Oh it's ashes to ashes, but always the ocean."
But the ocean can't come to this town, this town is a song about you.
You don't know how lucky you are, you don't know how much I adore you,
You are the welcoming back from the ocean.

And the ones that can know you so well are the ones that can swallow you whole.
I have a good and I have an evil, I thought the ocean, the ocean thought nothing,
You are the welcoming back from the ocean.

I didn't go back today,
I wanted to show you that I was more land than water,
I went to pick flowers. I brought them to you,
Look at me, look at them, with their salt up the stem,
But you frowned when I smiled and I tried to arrange them,
You said, "Let me tell you the song of this town,"
You said, "Everything closes at five. After that, well, you just got the bars,
You don't know how precious you are, walking around with your little shoes dangling,
I am the one who lives with the ocean,

It's where we came from, you know, and sometimes I just want to go back,
After a day, we drink 'til we're drowning, walk to the ocean, wade in with our workboots,
Wade in our workboots, try to finish the job.
You don't know how precious you are, I am the one who lives with the ocean.
You don't know how I am the one. You don't know how I am the one."


Mirror lyrics:

You don't know how I am the one. You don't know how I am the one."
You don't know how precious you are, I am the one who lives with the ocean.
Wade in our workboots, try to finish the job.
After a day, we drink 'til we're drowning, walk to the ocean, wade in with our workboots,
It's where we came from, you know, and sometimes I just want to go back,

I am the one who lives with the ocean,
You don't know how precious you are, walking around with your little shoes dangling,
You said, "Everything closes at five. After that, well, you just got the bars,
You said, "Let me tell you the song of this town,"
But you frowned when I smiled and I tried to arrange them,
Look at me, look at them, with their salt up the stem,
I went to pick flowers. I brought them to you,
I wanted to show you that I was more land than water,
I didn't go back today,

You are the welcoming back from the ocean.
I have a good and I have an evil, I thought the ocean, the ocean thought nothing,
And the ones that can know you so well are the ones that can swallow you whole.

You are the welcoming back from the ocean.
You don't know how lucky you are, you don't know how much I adore you,
But the ocean can't come to this town, this town is a song about you.
Oh it's ashes to ashes, but always the ocean."
I've bludgeoned your sailors, I've spat out their keepsakes,
"What are you trying to find? I don't care, I'm not kind,
But the weather changed quickly, oh the ocean said,
With my books and my papers I went to the rocks by the ocean,
I went back to the ocean today,

You are the welcoming back from the ocean.
You don't know how lucky you are, you don't know how much I adore you,
And that's when I came back to town, this town is a song about you.
Oh, that's what the ocean can know of a body,
And we have lost people, haven't we though?"
We're not churches, not schools, not skating ponds, swimming pools,
I thought it spoke to me, it said, "Look at us,
Oh I must confess, I was drawn, I was drawn to the ocean,
When I went to your town on the wide open shore,
