Once upon a time there was an ocean
But now it´s a mountain range
Something unstoppable set into motion
Nothing is different, but everything´s changed

It´s a dead end job and you get tired of sitting
And it´s like a nicotine habit you´re always thinking about quitting
And I think about quitting every day of the week
When I look out my window it´s brown and it´s bleak

Out of here, how am I going to get out of here?
I´m thinking out of here, when am I going to get out of here?

And when will I cash in my lottery ticket
And bury my past with my burdens and strife?
I want to shake every limb in the garden of Eden

And make every lover the love of my life

I figure once upon a time I was an ocean
But now I´m a mountain range
Something unstoppable set into motion
Nothing is different, but everything´s changed

Found a room in the heart of the city, down by the bridge
Hot plate and TV and beer in the fridge
But I´m easy, I´m open, that´s my gift
I can flow with the traffic and I can drift with the drift

Home again?
No, never going home again

Think about home again?
I never think about home

But then comes a lifeline
The handwriting fragile and strange
Something unstoppable set into motion
Nothing is different, but everything´s changed

The light through the stained glass
Was cobalt and red
And the frayed cuffs and collars
Were mended by halos of golden thread
The choir sang, "Once Upon a Time There Was an Ocean"
And all the old hymns and family names
Came fluttering down as leaves of emotion

As nothing is different, but everything´s changed
