Skyline
Möwe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Across the ocean, seen a thousand shores
Always searching for a soul like yours
There's no limit to the light you bring
Came with nothing, leave with everything

You give me that
You give me that sunlight, moonlight, just one night
You give me that
You give me that sunlight, moonlight, I know this time

For once in my life, I've got nothing to lose
I've got rips in my jeans, I got holes in my shoes
For once in my life, there's a moment of truth
Under the skyline tonight, yeah, I found it with you

Across the ocean, seen a thousand shores
Always searching for a soul like yours
There's no limit to the light you bring
Came with nothing, leave with everything, ah, ah

You give me that sunlight, moonlight, just one night
You give me that sunlight, moonlight, I know this time

For once in my life, I've got nothing to lose
I've got rips in my jeans, I got holes in my shoes
For once in my life, there's a moment of truth
Under the skyline tonight, yeah, I found it with you

For once in my life, I've got nothing to lose
I've got rips in my jeans, I got holes in my shoes




For once in my life, there's a moment of truth
Under the skyline tonight, yeah, I found it with you

Lyrics:
'cross the ocean, seen a thousand shores, 
always searching for a soul like yours,
There's no limit , to the life you bring, 
Came with nothing, 
& leave with everything ..you give me that...

"OH ..."OH" 
You give me that sunlight , moonlight in just one night you give me that ;
"OH ..."OH" 
You give me that sunlight & moonlight 
I know this time ....

FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE I GOT NOTHING TO LOSE, 
I GOT RIPS IN MY JEANS
I GOT HOLES IN MY SHOES.
FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE THERE'S A MOMENT OF TRUTH 
UNDER THE SKYLINE TONIGHT 
YEH I FOUND IT WITH YOU.

Lyrics that I understood from the song, unsure on a few parts, but i got my good headphones not here =)

Cross the ocean,
seen a thousand shores,
always searching,
for its all I got (but pronounced "goes" for rhyming purpose)/for its all there goes //not sure
there's no limit,
to the light you bring,
came with nothing,
leave with everything.

You give me (gimme) that humming
You give me (gimme) that sunlight, moonlight and (girls one night?) // not sure on the last part
You give me (gimme) that humming
You give me (gimme) that sunlight, moonlight and all this time.

For once in my life I got nothing to loose,
I got rips in my jeans, I got holes in my shoes,
For once in my life there's a moment of truth,
then there are skylines at night, yeah I found them with you //not sure
