Ghost in the Shell [OST] - Where does the ocean go?

all day the city's selling something

always, the busy people spinning 'round

busier

dizzier

'til they go back home to somewhere

and taxies stop to say "hello"

"want a ride? I'll take you there"

"to anywhere, just tell my driver"

the sun is casting shadows

an afternoon is fading

I ask, but no one knows

the answer to the question

my life is like an island

where does this ocean go?

shyly, a wino sips his wine

slowly, cause to him that is all that matters

he sees a cat he knows so well

now sleeping on a bench together

a woman waiting by herself, selling flowers

"please buy some, so I can help my daughter, will you?"

the man with spider eyebrows

is standing on a corner

"who wants to see a show?"

his head looks like a melon

he turns into an alley

then stops to blow his nose

sky is filled with neon

the buildings stand electric

and almost seem to glow

want answers to the question

my life is like an island

where does the ocean go?

I really want to know

my life is like an island

it's time for me now to fly

where does the ocean go?
