Cover art for The Ocean lyrics by Tegan and Sara

When you wake, what is it that you think of most? When your bed is empty, do you really sleep alone? If I imagine you, body next to another All around me new love and it makes me sad All around me feeling sure that you'll be bad If I imagine you, body next to another

Stop crying to the ocean Stop crying over me Stop worrying over nothing Stop worrying over me So it's been so long since you said, "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you."

On the drive back here, I was worried over nothing On the drive back there, tears spilling over something When I imagine you, body next to another In the door, and you're there, and you're still in for the fright In the door, did I hear saying you don't wanna fight? When I imagine you, body next to another

Stop crying to the ocean Stop crying over me Stop worrying over nothing Stop worrying over me So it's been so long since you said "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you." It's been so long since you said, "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you."

In a flashback to you just brought attention to the mess In a flash, you're on top, begging me to understand If I imagine you, body next to another You drop in for a minute I'm sorry that I didn't drop in sooner just to see you And see what you've been doing If I imagine you, body next to another

So it's been so long since you said, "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you." It’s been so long since you said, "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you." It’s been so long since you said, "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you." It’s been so long since you said, "Well I know what I want, what I want is right here with you."

we have a winner =)

I dunno, I still think "You'll be back" makes sense. and it's "over the ocean." and it's "what I want's right here with you." she does not pronounce "is." and "In the door, CAN I hear saying you don't wanna fight?" will have to wait for the album book to prove these, I suppose.

note that I changed did to can in the lyrics =P there were a few things that were incorrect in these lyrics, but they seemed closest to me you're right about the "is" bit, and I'll fix that straight away I'm just not hearing "over the ocean" though, I'm definitely hearing "to" or maybe a rushed "into", but probably "to"
