Til the Ocean Takes Us All (Live at Woodford Folk Festival)

I love you like oil, coming down hard
Need you so fast, need you so right away
Like a road train, I need you, babe
Let's burn it all away
But I need you like water, you give me order
It's getting hotter, believe me when I say
That like a spring rain, I need you, babe
But nothing last forever, after all
I'll love you 'til the ocean takes us all

This is the story of two lovers like twins
They would do lovers' things, blame original sin
Look into their eyes only for the meaning of the hour
As if there only, everything existed in their power, yet
Lo and behold, they drifted on a stream, humming
"How does it go? Oh, 'Life is but a dream'"
Well, the stream became a river, and the river start to tow
They, they didn't notice at all

Oh, I need you like oil, coming down hard
Need you so fast, need you so right away
Like a road train, I need you, babe
But nothing lasts forever, after all
I'll love you 'til the ocean takes us all

While on this black day, the people shouted from the shore
Screamin', to "Stop gazing, and swim to save us all"
But the twins, they didn't hear at all
They whispered nothings down the waterfall
And for what? Why did love become the void
When the, the ones we love, we would destroy?
Have you heard about the phrase says "Ignorance is bliss"?
Well, what bliss could lead to this?

Oh, I need you like water, you give me order
It's getting hotter, believe me when I say
That like a spring rain, I need you, babe
Nothing last forever, after all
I'll love you 'til the ocean takes us all

Oh, I love you like oil, coming down hard
Need you so fast, need you so right away
Like a road train, I need you, babe
Let's burn it all away
But I need you like water, you give me order
It's getting hotter, believe me when I say
That like a spring rain, I need you, babe
Nothing lasts forever, after all, all
I'll love you 'til the ocean takes us all
