I Sat by the Ocean Lyrics

Key: A major
Intro:
Verse:
I sat by the ocean
And drank the potion baby to erase you
Face down in the Boulevard yet I couldn't face you
There ain't no use in crying
It doesn't change anything, so baby what good does it do?
Your friends they all sympathize, maybe I don't need them to
Pre-Chorus:
Imagine I'd be your one and only
Instead I'm the lonely one
You, me, and a lie
Chorus:
Silence is closer
We're passing ships in the night
Verse 2:
There's nowhere to run away
Said, 'Boy if you want love, you'll have to go and find it with someone new'
'Do you know who you really are? Are you sure it's really you'?
Lies are a funny thing
They slip through your fingertips because they never happened to you
Time wounds all the heals as we fade out of view
Pre-Chorus:
Imagine I'd be your one and only
Instead I'm the lonely one
You, me, and a lie
Silence is closer
We're passing ships in the night
Pre-Chorus:
You, me, and a lie
Chorus:
Silence is closer
We're passing ships in the night
End to the light, left with nowhere to hide
Instrumental:
Chorus:
Closer and closer
We're crashing ships in the night
