Walk On the Ocean
Toad the Wet Sprocket

-Peaked at #18 in 1993


We spotted the ocean 
At the head of the trail
Where are we goin'
So far away
And somebody told me 
That this is the place
Where everything's better
Everything's safe

CHORUS:

Walk on the ocean
Step on the stones
Flesh becomes water
Wood becomes bone

Half an hour later 
We packed up our things
We said we'd send letters
And all of those little things
And they know we were lyin'
But they smiled just the same
It seemed they'd already 
Forgotten we'd came

(CHORUS X 2)

<Instrumental>

Now we're back at the homestead
Where the air makes you choke
And people don't know you
And trust is a joke
We don't even have pictures
Just memories to hold
That grow sweeter each season
As we slowly grow old...
