Lyrics

Ocean Cries - John Maddox

Daybreak sun in my eyes
Butterflies flutter by
Old man creeps - toward the water
Stumbling - ever so slow

Waves lapping at the shore
Salt on your lips left me wanting more
Young couple whispers lies
promises they will never keep

This is the turning of the tides
Listen close and you hear her cries
Up and down forever they go
She's seen it all before

Gulls diving from the air
Ocean sand in your hair
Children playing in the surf
While mom and dad sleep it off

This is the turning of the tides
Listen close and you hear her cries
Up and down forever they go
She's seen it all before

Old man - has reached the water
turns slowly - and begins to smile
cold water on his toes
Still he just - He just smiles

This is the turning of the tides
Listen close and you hear her cries
Up and down forever they go
She's seen it all before


This is the turning of the tides
Listen close and you hear her cries
Up and down forever they go
She's seen it all before
She's seen it all before
She's seen it all before
