The Ocean Beyond The Sea Lyrics

The Ocean Beyond The Sea - Jon Foreman

...

There's an ocean beyond the sea

That holds elixir for all who grieve

Only the shipwrecked could ever find it

By the ocean beyond the sea

In the forest beyond the trees

There sings a songbird who's been released

And the fowler could never find her

By the ocean beyond the sea

There's a valley above the sky

Above the reaches of humankind

And their towers could never find it

By the ocean beyond the sea

Beyond the scarecrows

Beyond the temples

Beyond the meadows

I heard a whisper

As soft as iron, as safe as lions

By the ocean beyond the sea

There's a highway beyond the road

Beyond where power is bought and sold

And the rich man could never find it

By the ocean beyond the sea

Beyond the tyrant

Beyond the sirens

Beyond the silence

I heard a whisper

As soft as thunder, as cold as fire

By the ocean beyond the sea
