I've seen that look before; here comes that doubt again

You think that girl we saw was more than just a friend

Yes there was a time I thought she had it all
D C G
She meant the world to me, back when the world was small
C D C G
That was a river, this is the ocean
C D C G
That never carried this much emotion
C G
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
C D C G
That was a river, this is the ocean

There are no boundaries, there is no end in sight

That was a river, this is the ocean
