The Ocean

The ocean is incredibly deep, from what I'm told
It's an endless body and my blood runs cold
I'm standing still, I'm standing
Somewhere in the back of my mind there comes a thought
Like the flash of a camera your parents bought
I'm standing still, I'm standing still

So we are alone
And we are together for just this once
I go on pretending I don't care
But I'm asking you nicely to stand here beside me

And yeah, I had a little too much to drink
Yeah, it goes down a little faster than I think

Everybody circles the sun on New Years Eve
Like a great parade that you just can't leave
We're standing still, we're standing still
And somehow in a crowded room, I saw your face
Like an old toy soldier glued in place
We're standing still, we're standing still, we're standing still

So we are alone
And we are together for just this once
I go on pretending I don't care
But I'm asking you nicely to stand here beside me

And yeah, I had a little too much to drink
Yeah, it goes down a little faster than I think
Is it really gonna be okay, is it really gonna be okay?
Is it really gonna be okay, is it really gonna be okay?
I'm standing still, I'm standing still
I'm standing still, I'm standing still

So we are alone
And we are together for just this once
I go on pretending I don't care, of course, I do
So we are alone
And we are together for just this once
I go on pretending I don't care
I'm asking you nicely to stand here beside me

And yeah, I had a little too much to drink
Yeah, it goes down a little faster than I think
Is it really gonna be okay, is it really gonna be okay?
Is it really gonna be okay, is it really gonna be okay?
I'm standing still, I'm standing still
I'm standing still, I'm standing still
