Evening Blue
Ollie MN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And she carries your thoughts with her
And you beg the flow delivers
You to someplace bright and bigger
Drink the evening blue
Unfolding in front of you
Oh i loved you then
On the curb that night
First under charcoal skies
Oh i loved you then
Just before sunrise
But you faded
Out of my sight
All i want is for us to share moonlight
It's like i waited
All of my life
For the way that you looked at me that night
There are lives unknown
Buried in this cobblestone
There is ground unsown
And your feet were made to roam
Drink the evening blue
Unfolding in front of you
Oh i loved you then
And i think you knew
But you faded
Out of my sight
All i want is for us to share moonlight
It's like i waited
All of my life
For the way that you looked at me that night
All i want is for us to share moonlight
All i want is for us to share moonlight
All i want is for us to share moonlight
All i want is for us to share moonlight
Your love's a soundless river
And she carries your thoughts with her
And you beg the flow delivers
You to someplace bright and bigger
The lyrics to Ollie MN's song Evening Blue speak of lost love and the longing to be reunited with a past love. The first stanza describes the person's love as a soundless river that carries their thoughts with her, and they hope that the flow will deliver them to a brighter and bigger place. The following stanza talks about the memories of the past love, with the singer reminiscing about a night when they were sitting on a curb, looking up at the charcoal skies, and they loved the person then, just before sunrise.
However, the love is gone now, faded out of the singer's sight, and all they want is to share moonlight with them again. The third stanza talks about the unknown lives buried in the cobblestone and the ground unsown, but the person's feet were made to roam. The singer repeats the first stanza, emphasizing the desire to drink the evening blue, to experience the unfolding of the night sky in front of them, and the knowledge that the past love knew of their feelings. The song ends with the repeated refrain of the singer's desire to share moonlight with their lost love.
Overall, Evening Blue is a wistful and melancholic song that speaks to the universal experience of lost love and the longing to reconnect with someone who once made our hearts beat faster. The river metaphor is an especially poignant image, suggesting that love flows like a stream, moving us forward even when we don't realize it.

Your love's a soundless river
Your love is like a river that flows silently
And she carries your thoughts with her
The river carries your thoughts with it
And you beg the flow delivers
You hope that the river takes you to a better place
You to someplace bright and bigger
A place that is brighter and bigger than where you currently are
Drink the evening blue
Take in the serene beauty of the evening sky
Unfolding in front of you
It is right there in front of you, ready to be embraced
Oh i loved you then
I loved you in the past
And i think you knew
I believe you were aware of my feelings
On the curb that night
On that night, we were sitting on the sidewalk
First under charcoal skies
The sky was dark and cloudy at the beginning of the night
Just before sunrise
Right before the sun came up
But you faded
You went away, disappeared
Out of my sight
I couldn't see you anymore
All i want is for us to share moonlight
I wish we could be together in the moonlight
It's like i waited
It felt like I had been waiting for a long time
All of my life
All my life, up to that point
For the way that you looked at me that night
For the way you looked at me on that particular night
There are lives unknown
There are people whose lives we don't know anything about
Buried in this cobblestone
Hidden in the streets and alleys
There is ground unsown
There are opportunities waiting to be discovered
And your feet were made to roam
You were meant to explore these unknown paths
