Ocean's Lullaby
Ocean's Reflection: Nostalgia, Love, and Embracing the Wild Heart
Lyrics
Silent waves are crashing into my heart´s tender walls
Silent waves symbolize emotional turmoil impacting the speaker's vulnerable emotions.
Nothing´s what it used to be not anything at all
Everything has changed, and the speaker reflects on a significant transformation.
Did you feel the ocean tremble when you touched the sand
The question implies whether a profound experience was noticed, suggesting introspection.
Or did you think more of your boat that finally reached the land
An inquiry into priorities, wondering if material concerns overshadow deeper experiences.
Have you all forgotten how it was to be a child
Reflecting on the loss of childlike innocence, possibly shared by a collective "you all."
And have you talked to your dream lately
Encouraging self-reflection on pursuing dreams and aspirations.
Have you, heart so wild?
A query about the sincerity of emotional connection, addressing a wild and untamed heart.
I can't settle down one second even if l tried
Restlessness and inability to find peace or stability.
I hate that you say you love me l would rather hide
Discomfort with declarations of love, preferring concealment.
But l think that you would seek and find me in the end
Anticipating a persistent search and eventual discovery by someone identified as a friend.
I know that is what you would do 'cause you are my friend
Affirming trust and reliance on the friendship despite challenges.
Maybe l should come to you just like a little child
Suggesting a desire to approach relationships with the innocence and openness of a child.
But l don't know how to do that with this heart so wild
Expressing difficulty in embracing vulnerability due to an unrestrained and wild heart.
Silent waves are crashing into my heart's tender walls
Repetition of the first stanza, reinforcing the impact of emotional turmoil.
Though l feel so strong and fearless l know that I'm small
Despite feeling strong, acknowledging vulnerability and a sense of insignificance.
I love hanging out with you I know l can just be
Expressing comfort in being oneself when with another person.
And l know that you let go of your own son for me
Acknowledging sacrifices made by someone, possibly a parent, for the speaker's benefit.
I hope it's a new beginning this life as a child
Hope for a fresh start, returning to a childlike state with newfound understanding.
And I pray that you'll love me even with this heart so wild
Expressing a desire for unconditional love despite having a wild and untamed heart.
I hope it's a new beginning, this life
Reiteration of hope for a new beginning, emphasizing a positive outlook on life.
I hope it's a new beginning, this life as a child
Repeating the hope for a new beginning, specifically as experienced through the lens of childhood.
