When I left you I was an ocean But now I am so dry Don't look for me over the mountains The mountains are just too high
And don't look inside a bottle For there I have come and gone Just look over your shoulder darling I might be there before too long
When I left you I was righteous But I've learned now to be wrong Don't look for me tomorrow Tomorrow is just too long
And don't look in my old letters Even diamonds turn to dust Don't shackle me with those chains of gold All my gold has turned to rust All my gold has turned to rust
When I left you I was an ocean But now I am so dry Don't look for me over the mountains The mountains are just too high The mountains are just too high
