WAVES
Vynce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't know where this is going,
Are you seeing other boys,
that's not fine by me, tell me you act faithfully,
Cause there's just no way of knowing.

Take my heart and take my soul,
Take my hand and don't let go,
Cast your dreams into the waves,
Leave them floating through the haze.
Let my eyes undo your smile,
I can make it all worthwhile,
Don't pretend the sun won't set,
When I forgive I don't forget.

What's this life that you've been living?
Turn the skies from blue to grey,
And tell me honestly, do you think we've got chemistry?
Our reaction wasn't safe.

Take my heart and take my soul,
Take my hand and don't let go,
Cast your dreams into the waves,
Leave them floating through the haze.
Let my eyes undo your smile,
I can make it all worthwhile,
Don't pretend the sun won't set,
When I forgive I don't forget, no.

Take my heart and take my soul,
Take my hand and don't let go,
Cast your dreams into the waves,
Leave them floating through the haze.
Let my eyes undo your smile,
I can make it all worthwhile,




Don't pretend the sun won't set,
When I forgive I don't forget, I won't forget.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Vynce's song WAVES suggest a tumultuous and uncertain relationship. The singer is expressing their insecurity and fear of not knowing where the relationship stands. They ask if their partner is seeing other people, which is not something they are okay with. They then plead for honesty and faithfulness, as there is no way of truly knowing otherwise.


The chorus emphasizes the singer's longing and desire for the relationship to work. They are willing to give their heart, soul, and hand, and make their partner's dreams their own. The image of casting dreams into the waves and leaving them to float through the haze suggests a surrendering to the unknown and the unpredictable nature of love. The singer has the power to make their partner smile and make everything worthwhile, but they also remind their partner that the sun will eventually set and that forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting.


The second verse opens with the singer's confusion and frustration with their partner's behavior. They accuse them of turning the skies from blue to grey and question whether they truly have chemistry. The word "reaction" implies a chemical or physical attraction, but also hints at deeper emotional responses that may not be safe or healthy. Once again, the chorus repeats the singer's willingness to give everything they have to make the relationship work, but also emphasizes the importance of honesty, forgiveness, and not pretending that problems will just disappear.


Overall, the lyrics to WAVES explore the complex dynamics of love, trust, and honesty. The singer is grappling with their own emotions of fear and insecurity, while also trying to navigate their relationship with their partner. The use of ocean imagery and the repetition of the chorus create a sense of surrendering to the unknown, while also emphasizing the power of love to make things right.
