It seems crazy
Since we’ve come this far
To think that maybe
This is where we part
My whole heart believed
When we laid on the beach
That the infinity we saw was ours

And now we’ve come to a continental divide
You and I
You’re running east and I am tumbling west
So unless water starts flowing uphill
Or some other miracle
This only ends one way
I’ll see you in an ocean again someday

We started running
With unbridled speed
Toward the sunset
Chasing pale pink dreams
But by dark I lost track of where you had gone
And the summer we ran had ceased

And now we’ve come to a continental divide
You and I
You’re running east and I am tumbling west
So unless water starts flowing uphill
Or some other miracle
This only ends one way
I’ll see you in an ocean again someday

Look: the stars shine bright atop this mountain
They pierce the dark as we make our way down
And I’ll see you in an ocean someday
