Distant
Ocean Jet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Soon after nine
I'll have to follow you
Crossing your line
But this is your solo
The music inside
Is telling the story
Of distant skyline
You smile when it calls you

We waited so long
And tried to figure it out
Don't underestimate my love
Till I continue the fight
Just stay, hold on
Don't lose yourself to the crowd
You are confusing me,
So hard to let you leave tonight

If I had known
From the beginning
Two lives ago
I wouldn't change a thing, so
Kiss me goodbye
And if that's what you wanted to -




Sail to the dusk
There's nothing more we can do

Как только стенку в клипе показали, сразу понял, что наши ребята)

Песня до этого весь была на репите и даже не было подозрений, что не англичанцы какие-нибудь)))

@katherinefesenko5994

Ребят,вы лучшие!Я услышала вас на черноземе 2023 и чуть не умерла от счастья!успехов вам❤❤❤❤❤

@mac-w0rm

Когда узнал, что группа российская, честно, очень удивился. Звучит здорово, а для нашей эстрады и вовсе потрясающе.
Желаю ребятам прорваться и за пределы СНГ. Пока это удалось, считай, только Парку Горького.

@SuperAlexmetall

+Max Medv Я думаю что он имел в виду рок группы. К этому списку подходит только Слот, да и то в мир интернета и молниеносного распространения информации они имеют наверное меньшую известность, чем Парк Горького в эру радио и ТВ и то не везде.

@alekseykostuykov1160

tesla boy - нет. витас - нет. полина гагарина - нет. тату - да. серебро - только в Италии. ВИА ГРА - нет. всё по большому счёту нет. не пишите ерунды.

@DimitryK

Живу в Австрии уже почти 10 лет (т.е. в Европе). Ни Серебро, ни ВИАгра, ни тату тут слышны не были. Очень часто все эти группы тут выступаю (всякие рекламки и плакаты - видел часто, как и рекламу по каналам при оплате русского ТВ, которое показывает тут все те же прогаммы, но с рекламой местного адаптированного посола)т, но именно для русскоговорящей аудитории. Сами австрийцы к этому равнодушны.
Простите, что спустя год пишу. =)

@AbstractGaze

Какой в жопу парк горького? это вобще ни о том и не в то время.. они рулят сейчас.

Валерий Меладзе слёзы на вашем припеве вытирает .Валерий Меладзе - Разведи огонь (Альбом Сэра)

@daria7534

А честно, только через неделю прослушивания узнала, что группа из России. Прямо даже приятно за соотечественников.  Стиль музыки не новый, но звучит то потрясающе!
