You and I are from different oceans
I just can’t get through
And still, you question my devotion
Look how far I already swam for you
Now, when I catch the sunrise with bloodshot eyes
So strung out, worn out and rusted by the midnight rain
I spend my days trying to wipe away the night, asides from that
I s'pose I can't complain
Now don’t think I didn’t see you, yeh the other night
Out the corners of my eye
Forcing styles and faking smiles
And all these things that’ll kill ya, before you die
You know, something I don’t
You’re holding out on me, I just know
The thing you've been wanting for so long
Can still be wrong
Now, you don’t got to be a doctor to see, I’m losing you
I can taste it on your brеath
Losing love is such a drag, I know
But to live a lie, is just to diе a thousand deaths
Now, I remember the first time I saw you, like Magdalene
Your beauty hidden 'hind the haze of shame
Now, I had not given the good Lord one reason to smile on me
But he went and did so, just the same
I don’t know what it is I saw in you — Spanish eyes or gypsy lashes
Or maybe because at the end of the day you’re the only other one who knows exactly how it feels
To pull into the same old station, day after day
On crooked rails and worn out wheels
You know something I don’t
You’re holding out on me, I just know
The thing you've been wanting for so long
Can still be wrong, still be wrong
There ain’t nothing I know of, except love
Can drive a man nuts
There ain’t nothing I know of, sharp enough
Can stick right in your guts, in your guts
So, you and I are from different oceans
And our currents don’t quite connect
You say I let you down
Tell me — what did you expect?
