Lyrics Lucinda Williams

Lucinda Williams

Ventura

Decide I'm gonna make myself

A little something to eat

Get can down off the shelf

Maybe a little something sweet

Haven't spoken to no one

Haven't been in the mood

Pour some soup, get a spoon and

Stir it up real good

I go out with a friend

Maybe a little music might help

But I can't pretend

I wish I was somewhere else

I wanna watch the ocean bend

the edges of the sun then

I wanna get swallowed up in

An ocean of love

Put on my coat

Go out into the street

Get a lump in my throat

And look down at my feet

Take the long way home

So I can ride around

Put Neil Young on

And turn up the sound

Drive up the coastline

Maybe Ventura

Watch the waves make signs

Out on the water

I wanna watch the ocean bend

the edges of the sun then

I wanna get swallowed up in

An ocean of love

Stand in the shower

Clean this dirty mess

Give me back my power

And drown this unholiness

Lean over the toilet bowl

And throw up my confession

Cleanse my soul

Of this hidden obsession

I wanna watch the ocean bend

the edges of the sun then

I wanna get swallowed up in

An ocean of love

I wanna watch the ocean bend

the edges of the sun then

I wanna get swallowed up in

An ocean of love
