Across The Ocean

from Burn Down Your Hometown by The Descenters

about

A love song for a city and a girl.

lyrics

She told, she told, she told a lie.
When she said, she said, she said,
that it won't matter.

I should have, should have, should have
known it was a lie,
designed to make me shatter.

But I threw that away,
on a cold and rainy day,
when the girl across the ocean
gave me back emotion.

But I threw that away, away,
on a cold and rainy day,
when the girl across the ocean
gave me back emotion.

You said, you said, you said
it wasn't there
Told me, told me, told me,
that it was hopeless...

And what,

It gave, it gave, it gave
to me
Broke up, broke up, broke up,
your chains
made useless.

But I threw that away,
on a cold and rainy day,
when the girl across the ocean
gave me back emotion.

But I threw that away, away,
on a cold and rainy day,
when the girl across the ocean
gave me back emotion.
