Ocean Crossing Lyrics - Arlo Guthrie

words and music by Arlo Guthrie 

Looked into your eyes this morning 

You were far away 

You must have known I was looking for you 

You knew you couldn't stay 

All these winds blowin' on me 

Blowing in the nighttime lonely 

Blew on over the ocean to you 

Blew my words away 

Put on your heavenly shoes babe 

Walk around the clouds 

You know that's where I'm bound to be now 

I'm coming with the crowds 

All these faces looking at me 

Looking through me I don't mind 

I just seen your face a-worrying 

I loved you when you cried 

Take my hand across the water 

You won't leave no tracks behind 

Step all over the moon lit ocean 

It's only in your mind 

All these thoughts just rip me 

Who can heal a heart that's broken 

Like the winds that blow unspoken 

Blow my love away
