An ocean away
Navigating the Distance: ELLEN RIVER's Evocative Tale
Lyrics
Call me , call me right now
Expressing a request to be called immediately.
Something's pushin' me so far
Sensing a force or influence pushing the speaker away.
Give me, give me your hand
Seeking support or connection by asking for someone's hand.
Something's sayin' it's gettin' bad
Feeling a premonition that things are deteriorating.
Call me , call me right now
Reiterating the urgency to be called immediately.
Something's pushin' me so far
Experiencing a continued force pushing the speaker away.
Give me, give me your hand
Repeating the request for support or connection.
Something's sayin' it's gettin' bad
Reiterating the sense that things are getting worse.
And I know what it's like
Claiming an understanding of a particular situation.
Yeah I know how it feels to be frozen under the sun
Describing the feeling of being frozen or stuck under the sun.
And I know you're gonna say your world is miles away from mine
Anticipating the assertion that the other person's world is distant.
And it feels like I'm an ocean away
Expressing a profound sense of emotional distance.
And it feels like I'm an ocean away
Reiterating the feeling of being incredibly far apart emotionally.
Hold my, Hold my breath
Referring to holding one's breath, possibly indicating anticipation or anxiety.
Everything's the same as we left
Noting that everything remains unchanged from the past.
Keepin', keepin' time
Highlighting the act of keeping time, possibly emphasizing a sense of waiting.
Time swallows clocks for lunch
Using a metaphor to convey the relentless nature of time.
Hold my, Hold my breath
Repeating the reference to holding one's breath.
Everything's the same as we left
Reaffirming that everything remains the same as before.
Keepin', keepin' time
Reiterating the focus on keeping time, emphasizing a continuous wait.
Time swallows clocks for lunch
Reusing the metaphor of time consuming clocks.
And I know what it's like
Repeating the claim of understanding a particular emotional state.
Yeah I know how it feels to be broken before a gun
Describing the feeling of being broken before a challenge or threat.
And I know you're gonna say your world is miles away from mine
Anticipating the assertion of a distant world from the other person.
And it feels like you're an ocean away
Expressing a sense of emotional distance from the other person.
And it feels like you're an ocean away
Reiterating the feeling of being incredibly far apart emotionally.
I caress the heart of what remains
Expressing a tender interaction with what remains emotionally.
Touch the water between us
Physically and emotionally connecting with the metaphorical water between the speaker and the other person.
And I love her for what she has stolen from us
Expressing love despite what has been taken away.
What water has taken, it has come back stronger
Suggesting that what has been lost has come back stronger.
And I know what it's like
Repeating the claim of understanding a particular emotional state.
Yeah I know how it feels to be frozen under the sun

And I know you're gonna say your world is miles away from mine

And it feels like we're an ocean away

And it feels like we're an ocean away

And it feels like I'm an ocean away
Expressing a personal sense of being emotionally distant, like an ocean away.
