[Verse 1]
There are men high up there fishing
Haven't seen quite enough of the world
I ain't seen a sign of my hero
And I'm still diving down for pearls

[Chorus]
Let me flow into the ocean
Let me get back to the sea
Let me be stormy, let me be calm
Let the tide in and set me free

[Verse 2]
I'm flowing under bridges
Then flying through the sky
I'm traveling down cold metal
Just a tear in baby's eye

[Chorus]
Let me flow into the ocean
Let me get back to the sea
Let me be stormy, let me be calm
Let the tide in and set me free

[Bridge]
I am not the actor
This can't be the scene
But I am in the water
As far as I can see
[Verse 3]
I'm remembering distant memories
Recalling other names
Rippling over canyons
And boiling in the train

[Chorus]
Let me flow into the ocean
Let me get back to the sea
Let me be stormy, let me be calm
Let the tide in and set me free

[Outro]
Set me free
Set me free
I want to drown
In cold water
