Ocean
Marquis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse One
Unexpected
Our connection
Would have never thought it
New Direction
I see something in you
Never saw before
In love with the view
I want to see some more
Within my mind
There's been a change
You brought me out of the box
I won't be the same
I don't care how far you are
You impact my heart
Opened up my eyes
To a different life

Chorus
Like a Dove you took my love
Ascended up and crossed the Ocean
Carrying my feelings caught for you
Now that you have my heart
Doesn't matter if you're far
Where ever you are, I'm with you too

Verse Two
Breath of fresh air
You change the atmosphere
Sense you from anywhere
I wish you were here
I don't care how far you are
You impact my heart
Opened up my eyes
To a different life

Chorus
Like a Dove you took my love
Ascended up and crossed the Ocean
Carrying my feelings caught for you
Now that you have my heart
Doesn't matter if you're far
Where ever you are, I'm with you too

Bridge
You raised the standard
Is there anyone better
Than the woman that you are?
You raised the standard




Updated my preference
Even far apart, you're living in my heart
