The seventh track of the album, Ocean Soul is about Tuomas' love and fascination for the ocean, and being an ocean soul. Tuomas has stated that the meaning of ocean soul is “the best way of describing me in two words.” This song has never been played live because it is just too personal to Tuomas.
One more night
To bear this nightmare
What more do I have to say
Crying for me
Was never worth a tear
My lonely soul is only filled with fear
Long hours of loneliness
Between me and the sea
Losing emotion
Finding devotion
Should I dress in white and search the sea
As I always wish to be
One with the waves
Ocean soul
Walking the tide line
I hear your name
Is angels whispering
Something so beautiful it hurts
Long hours of loneliness
Between me and the sea
I only wished
To become something beautiful
Through my music, through my silent devotion
Losing emotion
Finding devotion
Should I dress in white and search the sea
As I always wish to be
One with the waves
Ocean soul
Losing emotion
Finding devotion
Should I dress in white and search the sea
As I always wish to be
One with the waves
Ocean soul
