All my loves far across the sea
I call your name but you don’t hear me
So I stand, waiting for you
The exact opposite of what I wanted to do.
The ocean comes in, the ocean recedes
The ocean will drown all of my needs
The moment has gone but I can’t stop looking back
A wave & the shore, one moment of contact
So why hasn’t it gone away
This feeling I have
I don’t dare to say
If I walk through the door
And renounce it all
I’m afraid I’ll still turn into salt
Maybe we’ll just drift away
With no more words to say
I will die some day
You will die some day
But way before that day we’ll drift away
We used to look up under starry skies
An entire life flashed before my eyes
But the stars have come out every night since
One after the other like a series of prints
A handful of days makes a clip in my mind
History on repeat, frozen in time
Never saw a love story that I believed
But I’ll always stay through the finale
Tried to capture what I couldn’t ignore
It will never be as it was before
You and I are like the sea & the shore
Once together, nevermore
Maybe we’ll just drift away
With no more words left to say
I will die someday
You will die someday
Maybe we’ll just drift away
Maybe we’ll just drift away
With no more words to say
I will die someday
You will die someday
My only possession is my memory
A meticulously crafted sonic journey, a record that rewards careful attention with a seemingly endless string of surprises from song to song. No Moniker
It is very difficult to make an interesting ambient soundscape, and it's also very difficult to make a good pop song. I don't know how you're supposed to do both at the same time but OMW manages it! No Moniker
