AUTOMATIC
A Blue Ocean Dream Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How am I going to
Deliver you a mountain size of love?
How do oceans connected by a straw
Get something through?

I might need some time to remember
Need some time to remember
Hey! It's automatic when you know it
Hey! It's automatic when you feel it

When do I lay down
And get to see the world inside your eyes?
How can I reach out
And hold on to the joy you've got inside?

Hey! It's automatic when you know it
Hey! It's automatic when you feel it

I got some
But I wanna feel it every hour
Cuz I want to give it to you





Hey! It's automatic when you know it
Hey! It's automatic when you feel it

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in A Blue Ocean Dream's song "Automatic" express the difficulty of conveying emotions and love, even with the existence of immense passion.

These questions refer to the problem of how to bridge the distance between two people and effectively communicate emotions, even when there is a strong bond. The singer also expresses a desire to be able to see the world through their partner's eyes and connect with their inner joy, but acknowledges that it may take some time to remember how.

It's automatic when you feel it," implying that true love and deep connection occur instinctively and naturally, without the need for explanation or justification. The singer states that they may have some love already, but they want to feel it every hour so that they can give it fully to their partner.


Overall, the lyrics in "Automatic" convey the struggle to communicate and connect emotionally in a relationship despite overwhelming love and passion.
