Kenneth Mount - Ocean and Atlantic lyrics

[Verse 1] Jessie says she's been here for 1,000 days 1,000 days to her that just don't mean a thing Because the city makes a perfect place to sleep And daddy's coming home he said he brought her things Like j**els from every coast and songs for them to sing But singing never got her very far And this whole coast is full of pin-up paper rock stars [Chorus] She says she'll run until her feet don't touch the ground And as the waves carry me out We'll keep listening she'll never make a sound So keep it coming and the details quiet She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night And she'll be a secret you can keep, keep me [Verse 2] Cuts on paper hearts they can be awful deep Rips from wear and tear on different city streets They don't all need a home but just a place to sleep [Chorus] So I will run until my feet don't touch the ground And as the waves carry me out We'll keep listening she'll never make a sound So keep it coming and the details quiet She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night And she'll be a secret you can keep, keep me [Bridge] And soon she'll find that every time she runs she leaves behind Another piece of her on every city street So I will run until my feet don't touch the ground And as the waves carry me out, keep listening [Chorus] So I will run until my feet don't touch the ground And as the waves carry me out We'll keep listening she'll never make a sound So keep it coming and the details quiet She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night And she'll be a secret you can keep, keep me [Outro] So keep it coming and the details quiet She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night And she'll be a secret you can keep, keep me
