Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What you really, really meant to me
But now you're gone and my heart just bleeds
Bleeding out into the sea
Yesterday, I heard you call my name
But when I turned, I found my head was only playing games
I'm floating on in this bed alone
In the sea of love
I can't fight or try denying that it's you I'm dreaming of
The sea of love
Sea of love
You were so good to me but I wanted more
Now I'm dreaming of what we had before
Swept you aside, but tide is pulling me
Swimmin' back to you, begging mercilessly
Through the sea of love
I can't fight or try denying that it's you I'm dreaming of
The sea of love
Sea of love
Sea of love
Sea of love
Sea of love
Sea of love
In the sea of love, I'm dreamin' about you
In the sea of love, I'm drownin' without ya
In the sea of love, I'm dreamin' about you
In the sea of love, I'm drownin' without ya

I was a fool, I was too blind to see
I made foolish mistakes and couldn't see the truth
What you really, really meant to me
The depth of your significance in my life
But now you're gone and my heart just bleeds
Your absence has left me in emotional pain
Bleeding out into the sea
The pain is overwhelming and consuming
Yesterday, I heard you call my name
I thought I heard your voice from the past
But when I turned, I found my head was only playing games
It was just my mind playing tricks on me
I'm floating on in this bed alone
I feel adrift and lonely in my bed
Sinking down, nowhere to go
Feeling helpless and lost, with no direction
In the sea of love
Immersed in the overwhelming emotions of love
I can't fight or try denying that it's you I'm dreaming of
I can't resist or deny that I still dream of you
Sea of love
Symbolizing the vastness and power of love
You were so good to me but I wanted more
You treated me well, but I desired something greater
Now I'm dreaming of what we had before
Reflecting on the past and longing for what we had
Swept you aside, but tide is pulling me
I pushed you away, but now I'm drawn back to you
Swimmin' back to you, begging mercilessly
Desperately pleading to be back in your arms
In the sea of love, I'm dreamin' about you
My thoughts are consumed by dreams of you amidst the overwhelming love
In the sea of love, I'm drownin' without ya
Without you, I feel overwhelmed and suffocated by love
