An Ocean Between Us Lyrics by As I Lay Dying

An Ocean Between Us

2007

[Intro: Tim Lambesis]
Go!
[Verse 1: Tim Lambesis]
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail?
And how many days have we wasted
Chasing a love that was not our own?
I sat ashore and watched as one
Hopeless wave crashed upon another
While my thoughts ran to the highest hills
My heart never, never reached the sea
With only delusions of an endless (endless journey)
I am left with an ocean between you and me
[Pre-Chorus 1: Tim Lambesis]
An ocean between
[Chorus: Josh Gilbert]
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
[Verse 2: Tim Lambesis]
The gate to my heart has been weld shut
With the splendor of my aspirations closed in
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail?
How many days (how many days)
Have we wasted (have we wasted)
Chasing a love that was not our own?
[Pre-Chorus 2: Tim Lambesis]
Is this your salvation?
[Chorus: Josh Gilbert]
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
[Bridge: Tim Lambesis]
How many days?
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never, never set sail?
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never, never set sail? (never set sail?)
[Chorus: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream!
