Jolene (Hey Ocean!)

I'm singing songs about the ocean And every night's a lullaby To the coastal breeze and the salty seas I've never felt so far from home And as we cast on through these mountains I keep my back to western skies Where the sun it seems to always sleep Where I wish I was going She's the sea, she's the hardest thing to leave I wish that she would notice, but the sea will never notice Jolene, Jolene, that's what she sang to me But it ain't nothing but her favorite country song So this old van becomes a vessel A beast of burden and a home But those eastern shores are never yours Where I wish I was going Going, going She's the sea, she's the hardest thing to leave I wish that she would notice, but the sea will never notice Jolene, Jolene, that's what she sang to me But it ain't nothing but her favorite country song Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene But it ain't nothing, no it ain't nothing
