Umphrey's McGee > Songs > Ocean Billy > Lyrics


    It was such a misfortune to steal
    But the time finally came so I took
    If the moment were stretched to the seams
    Would it matter if nobody looked
    Half of the time on the stage
    Where most of it's not even real
    Regardless of anything fake
    How much could you practice to steal

    If the moment gets lost in the words
    For one time please let them be heard
    For resembling is never enough
    And to carry on blind is absurd
    Between either side of a choice
    What's possible holds even more
    And however the effort is voiced
    This has all probably happened before

    I missed the boat on what you said, so say it all again
    I think I'm off on what you meant
    So tell me one more time
    I missed the boat on what you said
    So say it all again unless it's the same thing as before
    I think I'm off on what you meant, so say it all again
    Unless it's the same thing
