Once Upon a Time There Was an Ocean

Once Upon A Time There Was An Ocean - Paul Simon

Once upon a time there was an ocean

But now it's a mountain range

Something unstoppable set into motion

Nothing is different but everything's changed

It's a dead end job and you gets tired of sittin'

And it's like a nicotine habit you're

always thinking about quittin'

I think about quittin' every day of the week

When I look out my window it's brown and it's bleak

Outta here

How am I gonna get outta here

I'm thinking outta here

When am I gonna get outta here

And when will I cash in my lottery ticket

And bury my past with my burdens and strife

I want to shake every limb in the garden of Eden

And make every love the love of my life

I figure that once upon a time I was an ocean

But now I'm a mountain range

Something unstoppable set into motion

Nothing is different but everything's changed

Found a room in the heart of the city down by the bridge

Hot plate and TV and beer in the fridge

But I'm easy I'm open that's my gift

I can flow with the traffic I can drift with the drift

Home again

Naw never going home again

Think about home again

I never think about home

But then comes a letter from home

The handwriting's fragile and strange
