In This Ocean

I cannot escape
The thoughts of you
Emotions that I thought I’d left behind
With my memories locked away
But here they are, exposed
And I’m laid out and wondering what I’ve buried in my mind
With my hidden thoughts of you
In this ocean I am drifting far away
When I can feel and life is real
It’s always when remembering then
I’m locked in time, I can’t escape
I’ve run so far and found no place
That I can be completely free
Without the chain of what remains
Another time, another place
And memories that I can face
Always I’m delayed
And thinking of the many things
I wish that I could say
But my words get tied up
And you’ve gone on so well
So why am I still lingering on?
Why am I still here
With my hidden thoughts of you
In this ocean I am drifting far away
When I can feel and life is real
It’s always when remembering then
I’m locked in time, I can’t escape
I’ve run so far and found no place
That I can be completely free
Without the chain of what remains
Another time, another place
And memories that I can face
In this ocean I am drifting far away
Here in this ocean I am drifting farther away
When I can feel and life is real
It’s always when remembering then
I’m locked in time, I can’t escape
I’ve run so far and found no place
That I can be completely free
Without the chain of what remains
Another time, another place
And memories that I can face
