Across the Ocean for You

Verse 1

The desert wind blows through my window tonight,
And the stars shine over Nevada skies.
But my heart is somewhere far away,
Riding a scooter through Saigon lights.

I still remember your gentle smile,
The way you laughed beside me then,
A simple moment, a simple touch,
That plays inside my mind again.

Chorus

I’d cross the ocean for you, Duyên,
I’d travel any road life sends.
Through the years and through the miles,
I’d search the world to see your smile.

The distance may be far tonight,
But dreams can travel farther still.
And as long as you are waiting there,
This old boy will keep chasing his dream.

Verse 2

You’ve carried burdens all your life,
Working hard from dawn till dark.
Taking care of Strawberry,
Keeping hope alive inside your heart.

I know the future isn’t clear,
And neither one of us can see,
But every day I wake believing,
That tomorrow holds a possibility.

Chorus

I’d cross the ocean for you, Duyên,
I’d travel any road life sends.
Through the years and through the miles,
I’d search the world to see your smile.

The distance may be far tonight,
But dreams can travel farther still.
And as long as you are waiting there,
This old boy will keep chasing his dream.

Bridge

I’ve seen war, I’ve seen sorrow,
I’ve seen good times come and go.
But the sweetest thing I’ve ever found,
Was a kind heart I met so long ago.

Final Chorus

I’d cross the ocean for you, Duyên,
No matter how long the journey seems.
Because love is not a moment,
Love is built from patient dreams.

And if fate is kind tomorrow,
I’ll be standing by your side.
Until then I’ll keep believing,
And carry you with pride.
