Oceans Away

Interprete: Elton John
Disco: The diving board

Letra de la canción:

I hung out with the old folks in the hope that I'd get wise

I was trying to bridge the gap between the great divide

Hung on every recollection in the theater of their eyes

Picking up on this and that, in the few that still survive

Call 'em up, dust 'em off, let 'em shine

The ones who hold onto the the ones they had to leave behind

Those that flew, those that fell, the ones that had to stay

Beneath a little wooden cross oceans away

They bend like trees in winter, these shuffling old gray lions

Those snow white stars still gather like the belt around Orion

Just a touch of faded lightning of the powerful design

Of the generation gathering for maybe the last time

Call 'em up, dust 'em off, let 'em shine

The ones who hold onto the the ones they had to leave behind

Those that flew, those that fell, the ones that had to stay

Beneath a little wooden cross oceans away

Oceans away where the green grass sways

And the cool wind blows across the shadow of their graves

Shoulder to shoulder, back in the day

Sleeping bones to rest in earth oceans away, oceans away

Call 'em up, dust 'em off, let 'em shine

The ones who hold onto the the ones they had to leave behind

Those that flew, those that fell, the ones that had to stay

Beneath a little wooden cross oceans away

The diving board
