lyrics

Oh the ocean is eternal
from where you sit, man
it shakes hands a million times
with every single grain of sand
They say the ocean grows each year
and you grow each year too
when they say be like the water
you don't know what they mean
when they say make your own way
honey you need to dream
you need to dream

There is a man sitting on the beach
drinking beer all alone
he stares at the sun in the sky
and those wind turbines on that hill
making it look like the island is about to take off
fly up into the air far away
but when they say you are like the air
you don't know what they mean
when they say make your own way
honey you need to dream
you need to dream

Now the waves come in
and the waves go out
the sun starts to trail off toward the west
the man sitting next to you
has fallen asleep in his chair
after drinking only 8 beers
and telling you birds aren't real
but when they say you are like those birds
you don't know what they mean
when they say make your own way
honey you need to dream
you need to dream

Oh yeah you need to dream
oh honey you need to dream
Oh you need to dream
you need to dream
yeah honey you need to dream
