There's a channel, there's a tunnel
You can sail by train from the English coast
There's an ocean with no tunnel
You can sail by mail, but go parcel post

        Esus4
There's nothing but the waves, the fish and the kelp

Dsus2
In between her and him

     Esus4
They entertained the thought about meeting halfway

    A                    Dsus2
But neither knows how to swim

F#m            E
He has a pump, she has a pail

        A                 Dsus2
They'll empty this quarry soon

F#m                 E
Stand on a rock and see each other wave

Dsus2
For now that will have to do


'Til the Atlantic's dry

There's a lighthouse, there's an outhouse
Both rely on a torch, just different bulbs
He sends flowers - it takes hours
Just to lie on her porch, they're quite different bulbs

CHORUS

Gmaj                 Dsus2
Bridge the distance, drain the ocean

Gmaj                  F#m
Pave a highway on the sandy floor

Gmaj            Dsus2         Dm            E
Part the waters with devotion - it's just a thought


A reunion bear Bermuda
They're too tired to hug, they just stand and gleam
Dehydrated yet elated
And they suddenly wake, they've both shared a dream

CHORUS

'Til the airfares drop to Greyhound rates
For now that will have to do
'Til Mother Earth moves and shifts some plates
For now that will have to do
'Til the Crown reclaims the United States
For now that will have to do
'Til Saint Peter opens up Heaven's gates
For now that will have to do
'Til the Atlantic's dry
