Ocean
Parisian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hoping I could be a little more free.
Maybe we can find peace.
Make a hole within the ocean beneath.
But these pieces just won't float away.
They remind me of our secret place.
No, these pieces just won't float away.
Hoping I could be a little more free.
Maybe we can find peace.
Make a hole within the ocean beneath.
But these pieces just won't float away.
They remind me of our secret place.
As I looked down I can see her face.
These pieces just won't float away.
And if you love her, you let her go.
If you love her, you let her know.
If you love her, you let it show.
And if you love her, you let her go.
If you love her, you let her know.
If you love her you let it show.
And if you love her you let her go. (If you love her now)
Won't you let her go.
If you love her you let it show.
Because these pieces just won't float away.
They remind me of our secret place.
As I looked down I can see her face.
No, these pieces just won't float away.
If you love her, you let her go.
If you love her, you let her know.
If you love her, you let it show.
The lyrics to Parisian's song Ocean are about someone who is trying to let go of a past love and find peace by dropping their heart into the sea. The singer hopes that this action will make them feel free and allow them to move on. However, as the song progresses, it becomes clear that the memories of their past love are still haunting them. The pieces of their broken heart won't “float away” and continue to remind them of their “secret place,” where they shared intimate moments with their past love. They eventually come to the realization that letting go of someone you love involves both letting them know and showing it.
The metaphor of the ocean in the song is powerful as it symbolizes vastness, depth, and continuity. The ocean seems to offer a way for the singer to move on from the past yet it also serves as a graveyard for their broken heart. The song captures the emotions of someone who is trying to come to terms with the end of a relationship and find the strength to let go so that they can find a new beginning. By acknowledging that if you love someone, you have to let them go, the singer-songwriter emphasizes the importance of accepting reality and finding closure.
