OCEANS LAST FOREVER

your teardrops are cascading

like a cruel torrential rain

your rainbows, lost in shadows

so they cannot ease your pain

at last, the dawn is breaking

and your slate has been wiped clean

the only trace of sadness

are the tears left on the scene

you'll find, dissolving quickly

are these puddles in the sun

but oceans last forever

and your freedom's never won

you try to run from trouble

trouble has such lively feet

after knocking you, akimbo

it will chase you down the street

you're bound to step in puddles

that are not of your design

but you cannot walk on water

or turn water into wine

you'll find, dissolving quickly

are those puddles in your path

but oceans last forever

you must face that aftermath
