[Intro]
Old ocean
Thank you for holding me
Won't be the same without you

[Verse 1]
Facts on the move again
Truths on the hoof they say
Oh, can’t you see
It's lost in the everyday
It slid so far away
From you and me

[Chorus]
Old ocean
Thank you for holding me
Rocked by an endless motion
Afloat in a ceaseless sea
Won't be the same without you

[Verse 2]
Loves on the loose again
Long in the tooth they say
Or lost at sea
Good has gone away
It seems it’s there to stay
What will be will be
[Chorus]
Old ocean
Thank you for holding me
Rocked by an endless motion
Afloat in a ceaseless sea
Won't be the same without you

[Bridge]
Whether calm or weather stormy
Whether green or blue
Whether vain or whether haughty
Whether win or lose

Whether truth or just a story
You can't pick and choose
Whether blunt or whether thorny
It's not up to you

[Chorus]
Old ocean
Thank you for holding me
Rocked by an endless motion
Afloat in a ceaseless sea
Won't be the same without you
