Lyrics
Lyrics 35 girl in the ocean
V1
They put little subs in the ocean
to ramble around on the floor of it
To see if our world s got a hole in it
They go deeper and down
down in the deep
deeper and down but you know
it only goes so low
v2
They put little drugs in her body
To ramble around in the blood of it
To see if her worlds got a hole in it
They go deeper and down
down in the deep
deeper and down but you know
they only go so low

Girl in the ocean won't you take me by the hand
I ll pull you up slowly I won't put you through the bends
This is your story you don't want it to end
Girl in the ocean won't you take me by the hand
V3
Well (we) she found herself in an ocean of blue
sinking down through the cold of it
Getting closer and closer to the bed of it
She went deeper and down
down in the deep
deeper and down and she got closer
and closer and closer
to the letting go
C M8 emin g c f d d7 c d d7c d d7 c
Girl in the ocean won't you take me by the hand
I ll pull you up slowly I won't put you through the bends
This is your story you don't want it to end
Girl in the ocean won't you take me by the hand
Repeat
