(Difford/Holland)
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 Iâ"š¬â"ž¢m not so far away
She said tomorrow and Iâ"š¬â"ž¢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 itâ"š¬â"ž¢s today
Across the ocean there's nothing else to do
It feels like youâ"š¬â"ž¢re on the wrong side of the moon
