(Difford/Holland) 



Across the ocean she's been waiting to hear  

If love's a secret to all the things she fears  

Was it tiptoe around my pillow talk  

They'll come the only boy she had with any thought  



The heart pretends I'm not so far away  

She said tomorrow and I'm here today  



I miss her now and I say it's only true  

I feel like I'm on the wrong side of the moon  



I'm forgettin' to remember to forget  

All the memories locked in my head  



I'll be home then you'll hear what I say  

It seems forever started only yesterday  



My heart keeps time which passes very slow  

When you're lonely without a place to go  



I've got the lonesome ocean blues  

I feel like I'm on the wrong side of the moon  



Across the ocean there's a heart that beats for me  

Beat, beating, waiting patiently  



Pulls us together when we're apart  

Keeps the devil from playing with your heart  



But I'll pretend we're not so far away  

I'm home tomorrow or maybe it's today  



Across the ocean there's nothing else to do  

It feels like you're on the wrong side of the moon
