They say love can move mountains,
And the oceans flow on free,
‘Coz love can conquer every misery.
But the oceans run dry slowly,
And the mountains stay the same,
And love, like all the others, feelings change.
So run to the ocean,
And watch the sun set over the sea,
And watch as the waves
Roll to the shore
Against you and me.
I heard you should walk softly;
Be delicate with grace,
A smile should always be upon your face.
But I never tread lightly
When the walls are crashing down,
And why should I smile when you’re not around?
I’ll run to the ocean,
And watch the sun set over the sea,
And watch as the waves
Roll to the shore
Against you and me.
They think they’re the wise ones, but
Who are they to say?
When love is going wrong
You can’t rely on songs from yesterday . . .
Just run to the ocean,
And watch the sun set over the sea,
And watch as the waves
Roll to the shore
Against you and me
I’ll run to the ocean,
And watch the sun set over the sea,
And watch as the waves
Roll to the shore
Against you and me

She became interested in both music
and social justice at a young age, in part due to being raised on her mother's love of 60s folk music.
For Paula, music is a way of reaching a wider audience with messages of social justice themes, as well as expressions about the complexities of life and love....more
