Rivers or Oceans
[Verse 1]
A pale blue day rising
As I'm sailing away from the scene of the crime
Just a few more miles and
We're strangers again
No traces behind me
Yeah, the water will sweep away the blood and the gold
I wait for big waves to find me
And hope they'll float me home
[Chorus]
Such a shimmering misfortune
Such a dark kind of bliss
I'll cry rivers or oceans
'Til I get over it
Such a shimmering misfortune
Such a dark kind of bliss
I'll cry rivers or oceans
[Verse 2]
No shipwreck sensation
You won't hear about it on the morning news
As if this shore wasn't shaking
Will I swim out one more time
And if I dive deep down, will I find the spot
Will I come up with what I thought was lost
Will I breathe easily
Will I retrieve what was mine?
[Chorus]
Such a shimmering misfortune
Such a dark kind of bliss
I'll cry rivers or oceans
'Til I get over it
Such a shimmering misfortune
Such a dark kind of bliss
I'll cry rivers or oceans
[Outro]
(Such a shimmering misfortune)
I'll cry rivers or oceans
(Such a shimmering misfortune)
'Til I get over it
(I'll cry rivers or oceans)
'Till I get over it
(I'll cry rivers or oceans)
Will it be rivers or oceans?
(I'll cry rivers or oceans)
'Til I get over it
(I'll cry rivers or oceans)
