Текст песни: Holding Back The Ocean + перевод

I packed up my truck an' everything I owned:

I said my goodbye’s and threw away my 'phone

I didn’t know where I was goin', so I just drove

South of Miami, down through the Keys

Road fin’lly ended when I hit the sea

Sent a postcard home sayin': «Don't y’all worry 'bout me.»

I’m just holding back the ocean

Makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin'

Watchin' over the stars at night

Till the sun shines bright in the morning

I ain’t worried 'bout a damn thing

Keep your gold watches and your brass rings

I’m tired of goin' through the motions:

I’m just holding back the ocean

String bikinis an' long blonde hair

An' you can taste the salt in the air

People laughin' and actin' like they don’t have a prayer

It’s twenty-four seven at my new occupation

Don’t even earn a dime but I wouldn’t trade it:

I’m workin' overtime on this permanent vacation

I’m just holding back the ocean

Makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin'

Watchin' over the stars at night

Till the sun shines bright in the morning

I ain’t worried 'bout a damn thing

Keep your gold watches and your brass rings

I’m tired of goin' through the motions:

I’m just holding back the ocean

It’s up to you what you do with your life

I’ll be spendin' mine

I’m just holding back the ocean

Makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin'

Watchin' over the stars at night

Till the sun shines bright in the morning

I ain’t worried 'bout a damn thing

Keep your gold watches and your brass rings

I’m tired of goin' through the motions:

I’m just holding back the ocean

I’m tired of goin' through the motions:

I’m just holding back the ocean
