An Ocean Made From Tears [Verse 1] Your shadow still walks through the doorway, Your voice still lives inside these walls. Sometimes I turn around to find you, Before I remember you’re gone. I keep your picture by the bedside, And wish that you were lying here. Every night I lose you over, In the falling of each tear. [Pre-Chorus] They say that time will ease the hurting, But time has only made it clear— You could measure how much I loved you By the weight of every tear. [Chorus] If every tear that’s left my eyes Had fallen into the sea, There’d be an ocean deep and wide Where you used to be. The waves would rise up to the heavens, The shore would disappear— That’s how much my heart still misses you, In an ocean made from tears. [Verse 2] I’ve learned to smile when people ask me, I’ve learned to say that I’m alright. But grief comes rolling like the tide does When I’m alone at night. And all the words I never told you Are drifting further out each day. I call your name into the darkness, But the waves take it away. [Chorus] If every tear that’s left my eyes Had fallen into the sea, There’d be an ocean deep and wide Where you used to be. The waves would rise up to the heavens, The shore would disappear— That’s how much my heart still misses you, In an ocean made from tears. [Bridge] Maybe somewhere past the horizon, Beyond the reach of time and pain, You’re waiting where the sky meets water, And I’ll see your face again. [Final Chorus] If every tear that’s left my eyes Could carry me to you, I’d sail across that endless tide Like broken hearts still do. And if the waves reached up to heaven, I know I’d find you there— At the end of all my sorrow, Past the ocean of my tears. [Outro] An ocean made from missing you, An ocean made from tears.
