Ocean
Tracy Spencer Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anytime that you want to
I will be there for a talk
Just pick up that phone
And dial the number on your wall
She thinks that she needs sometime
To rediscover freedom
There's things she thinks she is without
There's some things that she thinks she is without

So then one day
She swam away
To live by, the ocean
The ocean
People would say it's a little strange
Oh crazy notion
Of emotion, yeah
I never wanted to live at sea
She don't wanna be angry
Just free
No she'll never get angry, with me
Yea Yea
Woo Woo Woo
Awaaao Awaaaaaooo

So she said anytime that you want to I will be there for a talk
Just pick up that phone and dial the number on your wall
She thinks that she needs sometime
To rediscover freedom
Theres things she thinks she is without
Theres some things that she thinks she is without

Then one day
She swam away
To live by, the ocean
The ocean
People would say its a little strange
Oh crazy notion
Of emotion, yeah
I never wanted to live at sea
She don't wanna be angry
Just free
No she'll never get angry, with me
Yea Yea
Woo Woo Woo
Awaaaoooo Awaaaaaoooo

Then one day
She swam away
To live by, the ocean
The ocean
People say its a little strange
How could a notion
Of emotion, yeah
I never wanted to live at sea
She don't wanna be angry
Just free
No she'll never get angry, with me
Yea Yea
Woo Woo Woo
Awaaao Awaaaaaooooo

Woo Woo Woo (Woooooo)
Awaaaoo Awaaaaaaaooo
