The Ocean Breathes Salty
Lyrics
Your body may be gone, I'm gonna carry you in
In my head, in my heart, in my soul
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Don't think so

You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death?
The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in?
Are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath."
Songwriters: Isaac Brock, Dann Gallucci, Eric Judy
Will you tell me what you saw and I'll tell you what you missed
Well that is that and this is this
When the earth folded on itself
Your body may be gone, I'm gonna carry you in
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I hope so
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old
Will you tell me what you saw and I'll tell you what you missed
I had to think awhile. I had to think awhile
Collected my belongings and I left the jail
When the ocean met the sky
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get
You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste the afterlife?
Publishers: THE BEST DRESSED CHICKEN IN TOWN, TSCHUDI MUSIC, UGLY CASANOVA MUSIC
In my head, in my heart, in my soul
Well I don't mind. I don't mind. How the hell could I mind?
You get away from me. You get away from me
And said "Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell
You missed when time and life shook hands and said goodbye
Well that is that and this is this
The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in?
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again
Collected my belongings and I left the jail
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Don't think so
Well thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell
Well that is that and this is this
You get away from me. You get away from me
I had to think awhile. I had to think awhile
The more we move ahead the more we're stuck in rewind
When the ocean met the sky
You get away from me. You get away from me
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get
Well thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell
You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death?
Well that is that and this is this
Well that is that and this is this
