[Lyric] Ocean of Sorrow (Greg Keelor)

I said I’d pay the price no matter what the cost
But now I don’t know just what I’ve lost
I seem to be at quite a loss
It’s like all the stars up in heaven
And the dreams that come with them
Have vanished

Like my place in your heart
Faded away into some distance dark
I don’t know where I should start
Because this ocean of sorrow
Is much more than I planned for

I was hoping the band would play a little longer
Dreaming of words of unimaginable wonder
I saw it all in a snowflake splendor
But all my dreams have been shattered
And now nothing else matters

Yes, I know my way to the door
Across this ocean of sorrow
And this barroom floor
Through all my tomorrows and never more
‘Cause all that I love in this world is passing
So I’ll exit laughing
But it takes forever and a day
To cross that bridge over the milky way
