Songtext Oceanic feeling Lorde

Oceanic feeling

It's a blue day
We could jump Bulli
When I hit that water
When it holds me
I think about my father
Doin' the same thing
When he was a boy
When he was a boy

It's a blue day
We could go fishing
You'll catch the big one
Ahh

Sliding the knife under the skin
Grateful for this offering
And all the living things under the sun, under the sun

Little brother, I think you're an angel
I see your silver chain levitate
When you keep flipping

Baby boy, you're super cool
I know you're scared, so was I
But all will be revealed in time (Time, time)

Oh, look, the rays are in the bay now
Can you hear the waves and the cicadas all around?
I can make anything real
Rays so hot, it's a summer body
Every day is blue and never cloudy
Don't look down
I can make anything real

In the future
If I have a daughter
Will she have my waist?
Or my widow's peak?
My dreamer's disposition or my wicked streak?

Will she swear to die with her lover?
Laugh with the stars like her mother, when she was a girl, when she was a girl?

Now the cherry black lipstick's gathering dust in a drawer
I don't need her anymore
'Cause I got this power
Just had to breathe
I'm doin' it (Doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it)
Just had to breathe (Breathe out, breathe out, breathe out)
I'm doin' it (Doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it)
I just had to breathe
I'm doin' it
I just had to breathe

Was enlightenment found?
No, but I'm trying, taking it one year at a time
Oh, oh, can you hear the sound?
It's shimmering 'round higher
On the beach, I'm building a pyre
You sew a boat in by the tide
I, I, I know you'll show me how I'll know when it's time to take off my ropes
And step into the choir
