June and the Ocean
Junction 18 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Over horizon dreams
And then you appeared dressed in black
You drew the fear out of me
As we looked out to the sea
Freezing in waters so blue
3AM seems just fine
The nightcrawlers have left the bay
Did you notice?
Fate seemed shy an hour ago
Look where that hour got us now
Slowly..I'll wait for you holding all honesty
As I watch the sea
When you leave here
Take in all the sounds of ocean waves just glistening
We could just run away
We were made for this anyway
An I.F.O. could steal us now
We'd leave the beach to soar against the night sky
Over the high tides
Could these hours add on to our life stories?
Now it's just another day without the sand beneath our feet
I'll never let it go
I'll keep repeating it all over and over and over
Heaven's skies in your eyes
You know they fit just fine
I heard that song today it just bled of goodbye
That summer's gone
But the late night hours will still be worn
And on the weekends out with your friends
Will you remember that mindnight wind aching?
Or the suprise before the sunrise
It's just every night I miss you so well...
The song "June and the Ocean" by Junction 18 is a romantic and nostalgic ballad. The singer reminisces about a magical summer night spent with someone special. The night started with the satellite night, with dreams over the horizon. Then, the singer's lover, dressed in black, appears and draws the fear out of them. They stand together and watch the sea, freezing in the waters so blue. The night seems just fine, and they are left with so much more to say to each other. Fate seemed shy an hour ago, but now has brought them together. The singer waits for their lover, holding all honesty, as they watch the sea. When it's time for them to leave, the singer urges them to take in all the sounds of the ocean waves just glistening. They could run away, made for this anyway. Even an I.F.O. could steal them now, and they would leave the beach to soar against the night sky over the high tides. These hours could add on to their life stories, the singer muses.
However, now it's just another day without the sand beneath their feet. The singer can't let it go and will keep repeating it all over and over again. The lover's eyes have heaven's skies in them, fitting just fine. The song today bled of goodbye, reminding the singer that the summer is gone. But the late-night hours will still be worn, and on the weekends with their friends, the singer hopes their lover will remember the midnight wind aching or the surprise before the sunrise. Every night, the singer misses their lover so well.
Overall, the song is a bittersweet reflection on a fleeting moment of joy and connection that couldn't last. The singer longs for the summer night and the time they spent with their lover, even as they acknowledge it is gone.

Sattelite night is how it all starts
It began with a night illuminated by distant satellites
Over horizon dreams
It was a night filled with the hope of distant possibilities
And then you appeared dressed in black
And then you arrived, cloaked in black attire
You drew the fear out of me
Your presence helped me conquer my anxieties
As we looked out to the sea
As we gazed into the endless expanse of the ocean
Freezing in waters so blue
Cold and shivering in the deep blue waters
3AM seems just fine
At 3 in the morning, everything is perfect
The nightcrawlers have left the bay
The nocturnal creatures have departed the shore
Could I have so much more to say to you?
Is it possible that there's still so much left unsaid between us?
Did you notice?
Did you take note of what occurred?
Fate seemed shy an hour ago
Destiny appeared hesitant just an hour before
Look where that hour got us now
And now, see where that hour has brought us
Slowly..I'll wait for you holding all honesty
Patiently, I'll wait for you with complete sincerity
As I watch the sea
As I observe the tranquil ocean waters
When you leave here
When you depart from this place
Take in all the sounds of ocean waves just glistening
Absorb the peaceful sounds of the shimmering waves
We could just run away
We could simply escape from everything
We were made for this anyway
After all, this is what we were meant for
An I.F.O. could steal us now
An unidentified flying object could abduct us at this moment
We'd leave the beach to soar against the night sky
We would forsake the shore to fly amongst the stars
Over the high tides
Above the towering tidal waves
Could these hours add on to our life stories?
Might these moments be etched into the fabric of our existence?
Now it's just another day without the sand beneath our feet
Now it's just an ordinary day without the grounding sensation of sand underfoot
I'll never let it go
I'll never relinquish the memory of that moment
I'll keep repeating it all over and over and over
I'll relive it again and again and again
Heaven's skies in your eyes
The skies of heaven are reflected in your eyes
You know they fit just fine
They suit you perfectly
I heard that song today it just bled of goodbye
I heard a song today that was saturated with the theme of farewell
That summer's gone
That summer has come to an end
But the late night hours will still be worn
But the memories of late night hours will remain with us
And on the weekends out with your friends
During weekends spent with your companions
Will you remember that mindnight wind aching?
Will you recall the sensation of the chilly midnight breeze?
Or the suprise before the sunrise
Or the moments of surprise just prior to daybreak
It's just every night I miss you so well...
It's just that every night I deeply long for you...
