I’m here, taking off at speed
The world’s beneath my feet
And an ocean lies between us

Up high, a supersonic flight
The jets in overdrive
And an ocean lies between us
And I’m shock-eyed
Ocean lies between us

Alone you’re rising
The sun-kissed horizon away

A white light, another big time deal
My future’s all but sealed
And an ocean lies between us
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/t/tal+bachman/an+ocean+lies+between+us_10228592.html ]
But don’t fear, I’ll call you up tonight
No excuse or alibi
Though an ocean lies between us
And I’m shock-eyed
Ocean lies between us

Alone you’re rising
The sun-kissed horizon away

Out late, the hours swirling by
I forgot to call tonight
Cuz an ocean lies between us

I’m Back home, I slip in for a day
In the morning I leave at 8
And an ocean lies between us
And I’m shock-eyed
Ocean lies between us

And I’m shock-eyed
Ocean lies between us
