We sit in silence A marriage license Is all you know All you know, all you know We sit and chew gum Watch television And you know And you know, and you know But there's oceans between us Light years that screen us Oceans that drift away Oceans that fade to grey We sit and rot here Resenting each year Will you go? Will you go, will you go? We sing the old songs The beat box plays on And you know And you know, and you know But there's oceans between us Light years that screen us Like oceans we drift away [Like] oceans we fade to grey Between us there's oceans There's life in slow motion Quietly we drift away Quietly we fade to grey
