Tides
Beanfield Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's now my new sun
She don't speak but somehow calls to me
Automated exchanges make us not lovers
But feigner's, we are only strangers
Not estranged to regret
Not estranged to what follows our faulty steps
Ocean tides move to the voice of the moon
Strange how we move
How strange that I move to the voice of the moon
Love ringing out of tune
Regret once kept me from her door
But every time wore off more and more
So now we're back here
Playing sincere with a new set of bones, we are strange
Not estranged to regret
Not estranged to what follows our faulty steps
Ocean tides move to the voice of the moon
Strange how we move
How strange that I move to the voice of the moon
Love is ringing out of tune
Ocean tides move to the voice of the moon
Strange how we move
How strange that I move to the voice of the moon
Love ringing out, ringing out of tune
Leave your bad limbs behind
Leave your bad limbs behind
For they are conduits to the heart




Conduits to the heart, conduits to the heart
Conduits

Overall Meaning

In Beanfield's song Tides (Carl Craig 'Sessions' remix), the lyrics speak of a complex relationship between two people. The singer seems to have found a new love in the woman he describes as his "new sun," who somehow communicates with him without words. However, he acknowledges that their relationship is not a true one, as they engage in "automated exchanges" and are merely feigners who are "only strangers." Despite this, they are not estranged from regret or the consequences of their actions, and the singer reflects on the strange way in which they move through life, seemingly following the pull of the moon.


The chorus repeats the idea of ocean tides moving to the voice of the moon, highlighting the idea that the singer and his lover are also subject to this natural force. The idea of love ringing out of tune suggests that perhaps their relationship is not quite right, that there are some things that don't quite line up. The final lines encourage listeners to leave their "bad limbs" behind because they are "conduits to the heart," implying that, like the moon's pull on the tides, our actions and choices are connected to our emotional states.

Nowhere on the whole Interwebs have anyone tried to transcribe lyrics. Let me share what I have managed as a native Swedish speaker. I don't want to listen too carefully and too much; don't want to ruin the song by overlistening.

There are places we will see
Dreams become reality
Sailing my dream boat to you
Swinging a sweet lullaby
Lullaby…

Very special, yes it’s true
It’s so delightful knowing you
And it’s so good to know you feel the same for me
Our love is so everyday is a bond that grows
Our love is so everyday is a bond that grows
Our love is so everyday is a bond that grows

Communication is the key on a sea that's easy with you
Take a leap back, yeah
Take a leap back, yeah

Growth is a metamorphosis
Plus a minus existence in my oceans
Love call my energy

Catch with open arms
Swing a sweet lullaby
The sunlight * * * blossom
Moon tides up the sea
Unfolding your sweet arms
Guide with open arms
Say let my dream bow * so
Blessings heaven me

Now when we’re walking away
Every step we take
Brings us to place where we belong

No words. Just feelings. Which can’t be expressed with words.
