"And leave the dead beneath the ground so cold for God is in this hand that I hold" - I love this song, and these are the most beautiful lines to me. |

| Dar Williams – The Ocean Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| I think it's a song about a relationship where she idealizes her partner (friend?) and his way of life: "this town is a song about you", "you are the welcoming back from the ocean", but he disillusions her: "let me tell you the song of this town". The ocean is a brutal and amoral force (life?) that he lives with, meaning that he has a more cynical outlook, while she is the idealistic one. | |
