“It builds really slowly, and it builds to quite a big climax,” says Dempsey to themusic.com.au. “It’s a song about space – as in deep space, but also personal space; it’s kind of both of those things. It’s a song about two people, but at the same time it’s a song about vastness.”
Just get me off of this ocean
I want to move on the true sea
Where there's no above or no below, just you
Just you beside me
Just take me over that last horizon
Where this light's never been
Into a roaring black silence no ship
Would even attempt to repeat
Just get me out of this hotel
Yeah, check me out of this sleep
Been treading water
Hearing recorded messages inside this re-occurring dream
My starry-eyed compass keeps a secret
No starry-eyed theory could contain
And a promise she'll keep until the true sea gathers us up
In a tidal wave
[Chorus]
It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
I'll follow you overboard
In the collapsing waves
I'll find you in the dark
Like a stowaway
Just leave ourselves unfinished
Just leave an empty page
And let those sweeping arms just carry us away
Carry us away
[Chorus]
It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
