Oceanside
Oceanic Love: A Serenade of Independence and Belonging
Lyrics
I don’t need ya but I want ya
I don’t depend on you, but I desire your presence.
And I'm not tryna fix ya
I'm not trying to change or repair you.
I won’t pick your prices off the ground
I won’t take advantage of your vulnerabilities or hardships.
But I'll stand there beside ya
I'll stand by your side.
And if you want ill hold ya
If you wish, I'll provide support and comfort.
If your tears are ever falling down
If you ever cry, I'll be there for you.
Down
Repeated emphasis on being there during tough times.
Down
-Let’s go down
Suggesting a journey or descent.
Down into the town by ocean
Heading to a town near the ocean.
It’s my favorite place
Expressing a personal fondness for the town.
If you listen closely you can hear the waves
Hinting at the calming sound of ocean waves.
Sing you love songs
Imagining the waves singing love songs.
Love songs
Repetition for emphasis on love songs.
We’ll go to the oceanside
Planning to visit the oceanside.
To keep you running through my mind x2
Repetition for emphasis on thoughts about the person.
Soon enough I'll leave ya
Anticipating separation.
And I'll break my heart to keep ya
Willing to endure personal pain for the sake of the relationship.
Where you were all along
Recognizing the importance of the person in their life.
We belong
Affirming a sense of belonging together.
In the town by the ocean
Repeating the setting of a town by the ocean.
It’s my favorite place
Expressing love for the favorite place.
And if you listen closely you can here the waves
Reiteration of the calming effect of ocean waves.
Sing you love songs
Continuation of the idea of waves singing love songs.
Love songs
Repetition for emphasis on love songs.
We’ll go to the oceanside to keep you running through my mind
Reaffirming the intention to visit the oceanside for persistent thoughts about the person.
We’ll go to the oceanside to keep you running through my mind
Repeating the commitment to visit the oceanside for thoughts about the person.
