From the recording The Only Ride You Can Get
Lyrics
(verse 1)
Across the ocean
Far across the sea
My love lies waiting
In a bed half empty
Across the ocean
Far across the sea
My love lies with his back towards the stars
Dying to talk to me
(chorus)
Its not that we can't find lovin
It's all on ice back at home
Waitin' and searchin' for answers
That only God knows
That only God knows will come
(verse 2)
Beyond white beaches
Across the coastal plains
My father is prayin'
Hoping his love reaches me
Reaches me again
Beyond scorched mountains
Within the desert sands
My son is waiting
Lord knows I want to see him become a man
(chorus)
Its not that we can't find lovin
It's all on ice back at home
Waitin' and searchin' for answers
That only God knows
That only God knows
That only God knows will come
That only God knows
That only God knows will come
