Lyrics
I know how the ocean feels
I understand the emotions of the ocean
When her moon is away, and why won't he call?
Questioning why the moon, a significant presence for the ocean, isn't communicating
And there isn't a star that cares what time she rolls in
Stars are indifferent to the ocean's arrival time
If she comes home rolling at all
Uncertainty if the ocean will return and in what state
Blue Cinderella, let's go to the ball
Addressing someone as "Blue Cinderella" and suggesting attending an event (ball)
Blue Cinderella, I'm ready to fall
Expressing readiness to experience a significant event or emotion with "Blue Cinderella"
And nobody cares if she pounds on the sand
Highlighting the lack of concern from others about the ocean's actions
If she throws up or grows up or digs up a man
List of activities, possibly negative, that others don't care about
But the one that she wants is the
Emphasizing a specific person "One" who doesn't communicate as desired
One that won't call and say
Expressing a desire for communication from the elusive "One"
Blue Cinderella, let's go to the ball
Reiteration of the invitation to attend the ball
Blue Cinderella, I'm ready to fall
Reiteration of readiness to experience something significant with "Blue Cinderella"
And she cries
Noting a moment of emotional expression, possibly sadness or frustration
Moon, why you gotta have so many oceans
Questioning the abundance of challenges represented by multiple oceans
And isn't my blue water ocean enough?
Expressing a desire for recognition, questioning if her own "ocean" is not sufficient
But the stars fell down laughing
Imagining stars reacting with amusement to her hopeful feelings
When they heard her hoping
Highlighting her aspiration to be the exclusive focus of the moon
That she would be the only ocean
Desiring to be the only ocean the moon illuminates
He'd shine above
Expressing a wish for a special connection with the moon
I know how the ocean feels
Repetition of the understanding of the ocean's emotions
When her moon is away, and why won't he call?
Reiteration of the desire for communication from the moon
And there isn't a star that cares what time she rolls in
Repetition of the indifference of stars to the ocean's timing
If she comes home rolling at all
Reiteration of uncertainty about the ocean's return
Blue Cinderella, let's go to the ball
Reiteration of the invitation to attend the ball
Blue Cinderella, I'm ready to fall
Reiteration of readiness to experience something significant with "Blue Cinderella"
