POETRY > SONG LYRICS

TAKE ME BACK TO THE OCEAN

A song about discovering, remembering and creating with whatever life gives you, this is a story turning loneliness and sorrow into a colourful, fantasy.

Keyboard Intro

Verse 1

I was looking by the water for something I had lost 

Shimmering waves of blue and green 

In the distance, friend's voices were calling out my name

I could hear them but I just – slipped into a dream..

Chorus

Take me back - to the ocean! 

Take me back – to the sea!

Take me back - to the ocean! 

Take me back – to the sea!

We'll be free --- by the sea.. 

Verse 2

Down among the fish and octopuses I did make a home 

In continents of seaweed for several decades I did roam..

Then something bright and shiny floated right before my eyes 

Suddenly, I was back in the city, staring up at gloomy skies..

REPEAT CHORUS

Verse 3

I was looking by the water for something I had lost

Shimmering waves of blue and green 

In the distance, friend's voices were calling out my name

I could hear them but I just – slipped into a dream..

Final chorus
