lyrics

Oh Dayan wont you spend the day in bed with
Me could listen to Bob Dylan
Dream about the ocean blue
I saw you at a punk rock show when I was just 16
You were drunk and with your friends
Dont think you even noticed me
I was hiding in a corner
Then you left on a boat
You drifted out to sea
Went in search of something
Like destiny
While I dreamt each night of you
and the ocean blue
I saw you again a week young of 24
Down in durban
you were drunk and with my friends
and having fun
and I was having fun too
You saved me from a lesbian
We didnt say much of anyhting to each other
I was shy I had my eyes on another man
Had long forgotten about you
And those dreams about the ocean
About the ocean blue
A few weeks later down in Cape Town
A mutual gypsy split our three hearts in two
She kepy a half each for herself
And swapped the other halves between us two
So i can't ask you for your heart
Or for your freedom or your kisses
All I want to ask you
Is can we share that gypsy
On the ocean blue
