Story Behind The Song
Ocean Breaking started with the main piano riff. As the song evolved, I wanted classic backing vocals like those used by America.

Lyrics
"OCEAN BREAKING"
Verse 1
My mind falls apart like the Ocean Breaking when I see you.
I fall victim to the waves in the sea.
I fall apart like the Ocean Breaking when I'm near you.
The tide keeps pulling you closer to me.
Chorus 1
Give me shelter, give me shelter on the long road.
The storm is rolling further out to sea.
Give me shelter, give me shelter, I have no control.
I drift with the current hopelessly.
Verse 2
The sandy beaches littered with those promisses you broke.
Washed up on the shores of my dreams.
You said you heard beautiful poetry when I spoke.
All I heard are the sounds of my screams.
Chorus 2
Give me shelter, give me shelter on the long road.
The storm is rolling further out to sea.
Give me shelter, give me shelter, I have no control.
I drift with the current hopelessly.
SOLO
Chorus 3
Give me shelter, give me shelter on the long road.
The storm is rolling further out to sea.
Give me shelter, give me shelter, I have no control.
I drift with the current hopelessly.
