Oceanic Feeling Lyrics – Lorde

[Intro: Lorde]
It's a blue day
We could jump Bulli
When I hit that water
When it holds me
I think about my father
Doing 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
Ah

[Verse 1: Lorde]
Sliding the knife under the skin
Grateful for this offering
And all the living things under the sun
Under the sun

[Verse 2: Lorde]
Little brother, I think you're an angel
I see your silver chain levitate
When you're kickflipping
Baby boy, you're super cool
I know you're scared, so was I
But all will be revealed in time (Time, time)

[Verse 3: Lorde]
Oh, look, the rays are in the bay now
Can you hear the waves and the cicadas all around?
I can make anything real
Brain so hot, it's a summer body
Every day is blue and never cloudy
Don't look down
I can make anything real

[Verse 4: Lorde]
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?

[Verse 5: Lorde]
Will she split a tab with her lover?
And laugh at the stars like her mother
When she was a girl?
When she was a girl?

[Refrain: Lorde]
Now the cherry-black lipstick's
Gathering dust in a drawer
I don't need her anymore
'Cause I got this power
I just had to breathe
(Breathe out, breathe out, breathe out, breathe out)
And tune in
(Tune in, tune in, tune in, tune in)
I just had to breathe
(Breathe out, breathe out, breathe out, breathe out)
And tune in
(Tune in, tune in, tune in, tune in)
I just had to breathe
And tune in
I just had to breathe
And tune in
I just had to breathe

[Outro: Lorde & Marlon Williams]
Oh, 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 higher
On the beach, I'm building a pyre
(Use the wood brought in by the tide)
I know you'll show me how
I'll know when it's time
To take off my robes and step into the choir
