How Do You Build An Ocean

[Verse 1]

How do you build an ocean?

From the palms of your hands and a block of steel

How do you build an ocean?

Mama always told ya to make what you feel

But now it's hard, the days are long

You don’t how to feel or who you'll become

And there's a sense, of impotence

To manufacture love without giving in

You tried to build me an ocean, but I could smell a man made soul

You can’t build love like that

You can't choose who you adore

[Chorus]

Would you marvel at the light?

You always thought I've tried too hard despite

Your grip on everything let go of it, let go of it

Could you let it flood through your heart, through your blood?

You can't build an ocean, you can't force love

[Bridge]

Hold your peace, I'll put Johnny Mathis' sweet surrеnder on repeat

Causе now it's time to leave, unless we’ll keep on suffering my dear

Oh now it’s time to lose the fear

[Chorus]

Would you marvel at the light?

You always thought I've tried too hard despite

Your grip on everything let go of it, let go of it

Could you let it flood through your heart, through your blood?

You can’t build an ocean

You can't build an ocean

You can't build an ocean

You can't force love
