Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, my love
To the sea, the sea of love
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, to the sea of love
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you how much I love you
Come with me, to the sea of love
Come with me, my love
To the sea, the sea of love
I want to tell you how much I love you
The lyrics to The Honeydrippers' song "Sea of Love" are simple and straightforward, yet they express the depth of the singer's emotions towards his beloved. The song starts with a nostalgic tone, "Do you remember when we met?", indicating that the singer is reminiscing about his past with his lover. Then he proceeds to say, "That's the day I knew you were my pet", which sounds odd in contemporary times, but during the time this song was released in the 1950s, it was common to use terms of endearment. The singer exclaims that he wants to express his love to his partner, and he invites them to go on a journey with him to the "sea of love".
The second verse is a repetition of the first verse, indicating the singer's earnestness in expressing his love for his partner. The chorus is a repetition of the invitation to go to the "sea of love", where the singer would be able to express his love to his partner. The singer does not provide a clear definition of what the "sea of love" is, but it could symbolize a place where love is free-flowing and uninhibited. The song ends with the singer's desire to express how much he loves his partner.
