1000 oceans Lyrics

Empty streets
I follow every breath into the night
The wind so cold
The sun is frozen
The world has lost its light
I carry your picture
Deep in me
Back to you
Over 1000 seas
Back to us
Don't you lose your trust and your belief
Just trust me

(chorus)
We have to go 1000 oceans wide
1000 dark years when time has died
1000 stars are passing by
We have 1000 oceans wide
1000 times against an endless tide
We'll be free to live our life

I know somewhere
We'll find a little place for you and me
It all turned out
A different way
Can't feel the pulse
In our veins
So weak today
We'll let our heartbeat
Guide us through the dark
Just trust me

(chorus)
We have to go 1000 oceans wide
1000 dark years when time has died
1000 stars are passing by
We have 1000 oceans wide
1000 times against an endless tide
We'll be free to live our life

There's nothing and no one we'll miss
And one day we'll look back with no regrets

1000 oceans wide
1000 endless years have died
1000 oceans wide
1000 stars are passing by---passing by

Please don't drift away from me---please don't drift away from me

We have to go 1000 oceans wide
1000 dark years when time has died
1000 stars are passing by
We have 1000 oceans wide
1000 times against an endless tide
We'll be free to live our life

Ohk I think it MAY be about people not believing in a relationship two people may have and they are trying to disencourage them but they won't let it happen and they are fighting against it ? Maybe.. I dont know haha.

I am not sure the exact meaning, but to me this song is about a relationship that is going through some hardship and is starting to break, sounds like an outside force is pulling the relationship apart, but one side is telling the other to hold on and be ready to fight for love.

I think that this song means that you have to have trust in the person that you love and you can accomplish anything together

I think it's... we "only" have to go a thousand oceans wide--which isn't "only," it's really hard, but it's barely significant because they love each other and once they get there everything will be peaceful.

Sorry, I should have clarified; I'm pretty sure the original is "we only have to go 1000 oceans" or something.

I tend to think this song is about a couple who is far apart. Whether it's physically or emotionally. And he's saying "Hold on, don't leave. We can make it, and be strong even with the 1000 Oceans separating us". But that's my interpretation.

This song is about a long distance relationship where both have to keep their faith that one day they will be together again. The "please don't drift away from me" is more like a plead to not let the relationship fall apart because of the distance between them. Beautiful song.
