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
Something unstoppable set into motion
Nothing is different but everything's changed
The light through the stained glass was cobalt and red
And the frayed cuffs and collars were
mended by haloes of golden thread
The choir sang Once Upon A Time There Was An Ocean
And all the old hymns and family names came
fluttering down as leaves of emotion
As nothing is different but everything's changed
