My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean - Christine Brown

Does this make sense to you? 'Cause it doesn't make sense to me Does this have weight for you? 'Cause it doesn't have weight for me And I think my mind is far away Sorta strange, this is But I think I'll call you anyway Call collect, 'cause baby, this is An over-the-ocean call And I thought I could make it short But my brain's all out of sorts I can't hide it And I'm staring at my wall And I thought that I wouldn't cry But breaking your heart breaks mine I can't hide it An over-the-ocean call Is how I told him This isn't working anymore I needed space from you But this doesn't look like space to me, oh And you hate the things I do And sometimes you hate me But I think my mind is far away Sorta strange, this is But I think I'll call you anyway Call collect, 'cause baby, this is An over-the-ocean call And I thought I could make it short But my brain's all out of sorts I can't hide it I'm staring at my wall And I thought that I wouldn't cry But breaking your heart breaks mine I can't hide it An over-the-ocean call Is how I told him This isn't working anymore (I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine) (I'll call from over the ocean) (This time, this time, this time) (I'll break your heart through the phone, I) I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine I'll call from over the ocean This time, this time, this time I'll break your heart through the phone, I I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine I'll call from over the ocean This time, this time, this time I'll break your heart through the phone With an over-the-ocean call And I thought I could make it short But my brain's all out of sorts I'm staring at my wall And I thought that I wouldn't cry But breaking your heart breaks mine Over-the-ocean call Is how I told him This isn't working anymore

Over the ocean Thought I heard voices Reflected voices Satellite message Isn't it something? The realizing Silver dots marking Endless horizon Over the ocean We'll have a vodka Your card is left open So nothing can stop ya (So far, so good, so far, so good...) I am not worried Some have a feud The captain has comfort His voice in my ear What are we doing? When we are standing? Your life may be burdened More so than the mandate Over the ocean Over the ocean Over the ocean Over the ocean

We take a drive just to sing along Every word of them Rolling Stones Stacey's mom had it goin' on Lived three doors down, I can see her now Her daughter had a heart that was wild and free If you Blink-182, then you'd miss me and her Every verse had a story Yeah, them pocket lighter nights lit up our days of glory Back when the air guitars were the only sound And you'd strum the chords and I'd put the pedal down Two-man dashboard band rollin' through this town Had that rearview shakin' to the kick-drum beat Leanin' West Coast deep in the bucket seats All I ever wanted was right there in that car Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Nothin' like freedom two windows down You singin' along, still hear it now Way too loud and sometimes off key But you sounded like an angel to me You'd make fun of how I threw my head And threw my fingers up in the air Thought I was Kurt Cobain or Jimmy Page You were at side seat, center stage Back when the air guitars were the only sound And you'd strum the chords and I'd put the pedal down Two-man dashboard band rollin' through this town And that rearview shakin' to the kick-drum beat Leanin' West Coast deep in the bucket seats All I ever wanted was right there in that car Back when we were rockstars Back when we were rockstars We never ended up on MTV Or heard our voices on a CD But in your eyes and in my arms We were each other's rockstars Back when the air guitars were the only sound And you'd strum the chords and I'd put the pedal down Two-man dashboard band rollin' through this town Had that rearview shakin' to the kick-drum beat Leeanin' West Coast deep in the bucket seats All I ever wanted was right there in that car Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Yeah, back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) Back when we were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) You and me were rockstars (We're running all night, chasing down a dream) (Howling at the moon, baby, you and me) oh yeah (Running all night, chasing down a dream) Yeah, we were runnin' all night, chasing down a dream Howlin' at the moon, baby, you and me
