Ocean Eyes
SVRCINA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, oh oh oh, mmm

I've been watchin' you for some time
Can't stop starin' at those ocean eyes
Burning cities and napalm skies
Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
Your ocean eyes
No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes

Those ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes

No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean eyes
I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Fallin' into your ocean eyes

Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, yeh, ooh

Those ocean eyes




Those ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes

Overall Meaning

The song "Ocean Eyes" by SVRCINA is a ballad about the overwhelming feelings of falling in love. From the very first line, the singer expresses her captivation with the person she is watching. She explains that she can't help but stare into their deep blue eyes, likening them to the beauty of an ocean. The imagery of "burning cities and napalm skies" sets a dangerous tone, but also highlights the intensity of this new love. She seems to be drawn in and consumed by this person, with "fifteen flares" representing the sparks that are flying between them.


The chorus is a repetition of the same lines, emphasizing the power that this new love has over her. She admits that this person knows how to make her cry, but she can't resist their pull. She uses the metaphor of falling from a height into their eyes to convey the all-consuming nature of the attraction. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, driving home the idea that the singer is fully under the spell of this person's ocean eyes.


Overall, "Ocean Eyes" is a beautifully simple love song that captures the intensity of new attraction. The singer's use of ocean imagery adds a sense of danger and depth to the feelings she is describing. The power of love can be overwhelming, and SVRCINA has perfectly captured that feeling in this song.

This is the best cover of "Ocean Eyes" that I have heard - Billie might envy you for your voice! and Billie's is beautiful, your voice radiates. I wished Billie could hear this - I think it would bring tears to her eyes. EDIT: I see someone before me mentioned the guitar - the playing was awesome!
