Ocean Deep

About Ocean Deep

"Ocean Deep" is a song, a sentimental ballad, written by Rod Trott and Jon Sweet and sung by British singer Cliff Richard. It first appeared on his 1983 album Silver which marked his 25th anniversary in music, and the US variant of the album, Give a Little Bit More. In May 1984 (and only in the UK), it became the fourth song to be lifted from the album as a single after starting out as the mere B-side of the third single "Baby You're Dynamite", released in March 1984. Although having only minor chart success, the song quickly became a phenomenon among Richard's fans the world over, with fans voting the song as their favourite, 25 times out of 26 between 1984 and 2009 in the annual "Cliff Poll" of the fan's favourite songs (where the final poll was in 2009). In the UK, it also has made its way into public polls conducted by radio stations of their favourite Cliff Richard songs. The song broke through to the wider public in South East Asia, becoming very popular in the Philippines where it became one of the bigger hits of the 1980s, and Hong Kong. more »

Love, can't you see I'm alone
Can't you give this fool a chance
A little love is all I ask
A little kindness in the night

Please don't leave me behind
No, don't tell me love is blind
A little love is all I ask
And that is all

Ooh love, I've been searchin' so long
I've been searchin' high and low
And little love is all I ask
A little sadness when you go

Maybe you'll need a friend
Only please don't let's pretend
A little love is all I ask
And that is all

I wanna spread my wings
But I just can't fly
As a string of pearls
The pretty girls go sailin' by

Ocean deep
I'm so afraid to show my feelings
I have sailed a million ceilings
Solitary room

Ocean deep
Will I ever find a lover
Maybe she has found another
And as I cry myself to sleep
I know this love of mine I'll keep
Ocean deep

Now, can't you hear when I call
Can't you hear a word I say
A little love is all I ask
A little feelin' when we touch

Why am I still alone
I've got a heart without a home
A little love is all I ask
And that is all

I wanna spread my wings
But I just can't fly
As a string of pearls
The pretty girls go sailin' by

Ocean deep
I'm so afraid to show my feelings
I have sailed a million ceilings
Solitary room

Ocean deep
Will I ever find a lover
Maybe she has found another
And as I cry myself to sleep
I know this love of mine I'll keep
Ocean deep

I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely (Ocean deep)
On my own in my room
I'm so lonely
(Ocean deep)
I'm so lonely, I'm so lonely
This love of mine
I'll be ocean deep
I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely
In my room
