Oceans (1986) [Jimi Jamison R.I.P. August 31, 2014]
Into the night, two of a kind We rode the crest of the wave Are we destined to leave love behind I'll pay the price, just tell me the cost To save something here in our heart Something dear that cannot be lost And I can't help but wonder out loud If only we could go back to square one If finally we could pinpoint where we lost touch I stand alone, reaching out my hand to you
*Oceans between us Strangers upon the shore Like islands we stand alone Oceans between us now Oceans surround us Stand and watch as they disappear To challenge the rising tide Or drown in a sea of tears*
We shut out the hurt, we cast love aside Stubborn beyond the point of all reason Stranded by pride Craving your touch, oh, under its spell Knowing for certain that no one on earth Could love you so well And I know that you're wondering now If only we could go back to square one If finally we could pinpoint, where we lost touch I stand alone, reaching out my hand to you
