Lyrics
I was hoping to be found alive
In a pool of lies and an ocean of tears
I was looking for a ship, ahoy
I was waiting, bottom line, for a miracle, oh, oh
All I hope is that when they find me
I have the good sense to say a prayer
For all that is dear to me
I hope I still find them waiting there
You know I know that I should be grateful
It's not enough and no reason at all
It's only right to reveal my feelings
And even the best at times get bored
I was floating for quite a while
With my fingers resting in the deep blue sea
I was watching the spin drift dancing
Flowin' away to forever from me
I could have stayed forever
And Sunday, waiting for something or even someone
I could've watched the whole world pass me
Just for the sake of being reasonable
I was hoping to be found alive
In a pool of lies and an ocean of tears
I was looking for a ship, ahoy
I was waiting, bottom line, for a miracle
All I hope is that when they find me
I have the good sense to say a prayer
For all that is dear to me
I hope I still find them waiting there
You know I know that I should be grateful
It's not enough and no reason at all
It's only right to reveal my feelings
And even the best at times get bored
I could have stayed forever
And Sunday, waiting for something or even someone
I could've watched the whole world pass me
Just for the sake of being reasonable
