Oceans
Coast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We fell in love
Right by the ocean
Made all our plans
Down on the sand

And from the tips of your fingers
Down to the soles of your feet
A glimmer in your skin
That I can't believe
And take a trip to the sea
Let your hair run, run free
You're a rebel in disguise
Is that the devil in your eyes

We fell in love
Right by the ocean
Made all our plans
Down on the sand

We fell in love
Right by the ocean
Made all our plans
Down on the sand

Wider smiles than I've ever seen
Your little arms hug your body
This is more than I can take
You're the fruit that I can taste
You only seek what you give away
You'll only speak what you wanna say
You ululate like a warrior
I'll make you shake like your bed girl

We fell in love
Right by the ocean
Made all our plans
Down on the sand

We fell in love
Right by the ocean
Made all our plans
Down on the sand

This is our garden girl
We live in a fractured world
Willing to be the same
Same as it always was
We're in a rapture girl
We live in a lonely world
Willing to be the same
Same as it always was

We fell in love
Right by the ocean
Made all our plans
Down on the sand

We fell in love
Right by the ocean




Made all our plans
Down on the sand

Overall Meaning

The song "Ocean" by Coasts tells a story of a couple who fell in love by the ocean and made plans for their future together on the sand. The lyrics speak of the beauty they both see in one another, from the glimmer in the skin to the wider smiles they generate in each other's presence. The singer describes the beauty of his partner's form, from the tips of her fingers down to the soles of her feet, leaving him in disbelief that he found someone so perfect for him.


The song presents a vivid image of the joy that comes from living in the moment, and the experience of being in love by the ocean amplifies their happiness. The scenery of the coastline seems to provoke the couple to be bold and adventurous together, moving into uncharted territory, pushing their limits, and being unapologetically themselves. The line "This is our garden girl" suggests that the ocean is their tranquil haven from the turmoil of the world.


Line by Line Meaning

We fell in love
We became romantically involved


Right by the ocean
Our love grew while we were near the water


Made all our plans
We made promises and arrangements for our future


Down on the sand
We made these plans while sitting on the beach


And from the tips of your fingers
Starting from your fingertips


Down to the soles of your feet
All the way to the bottom of your feet


A glimmer in your skin
Your skin shone lightly


That I can't believe
I was amazed by how beautiful you were


And take a trip to the sea
Let's go to the ocean


Let your hair run, run free
Let your hair flow naturally


You're a rebel in disguise
You pretend to conform, but you are really independent


Is that the devil in your eyes
Are you mischievous or wicked?


Wider smiles than I've ever seen
You looked very happy, more than I had ever seen you smile


Your little arms hug your body
Your small arms wrapped around your torso


This is more than I can take
I am so overwhelmed with emotion


You're the fruit that I can taste
You are the essence of my desire


You only seek what you give away
You only search for what you are willing to offer others.


You'll only speak what you wanna say
You will only communicate what you really want to say


You ululate like a warrior
You shout in triumph like a victorious fighter


I'll make you shake like your bed girl
I will shake you like a bed sheet to show my love


This is our garden girl
Our relationship is a place we cultivate and nurture


We live in a fractured world
We share this world that is divided and broken


Willing to be the same
We are prepared to be conventional and typical


Same as it always was
Everything will stay as it has been


We're in a rapture girl
Our love has put us in a state of ecstasy


We live in a lonely world
Our world can be a place of isolation and solitude
