Across the ocean she's been waiting to hear If love's a secret to all the things she fears Was it tiptoe around my pillow talk They'll come the only boy she had with any thought The heart pretends I'm not so far away She said tomorrow and I'm here today I miss her now and I say it's only true I feel like I'm on the wrong side of the moon I'm forgettin' to remember to forget All the memories locked in my head I'll be home then you'll hear what I say It seems forever started only yesterday My heart keeps time which passes very slow When you're lonely without a place to go I've got the lonesome ocean blues I feel like I'm on the wrong side of the moon Across the ocean there's a heart that beats for me Beat, beating, waiting patiently Pulls us together when we're apart Keeps the devil from playing with your heart But I'll pretend we're not so far away I'm home tomorrow or maybe it's today Across the ocean there's nothing else to do It feels like you're on the wrong side of the moon
