Lost at Sea Lyrics
I was a boat drifting out into sea
I had nothing but pieces of thoughts of the hope that you would see me
I was a stone’s throw away from land
But thousands and thousands of miles away from reaching your hand
The waves that crashed upon
The rocks that you were trying to walk along
And in my head I heard them play a song
For you and me
The waves that crashed upon
The rocks that you were trying to step along
And in my head I heard them play a song
For you and me
Let’s get lost at sea
Where they will never find us
Got stars at night to guide us
Lost at sea
Where they will never find us
Got stars at night to guide us
Oh yeah
[repeat]
I had nothing but pieces of thoughts of the hope that you would see me
I was a stone’s throw away from land
But thousands and thousands of miles away from reaching your hand
The rocks that you were trying to walk along
And in my head I heard them play a song
For you and me
The rocks that you were trying to step along
And in my head I heard them play a song
For you and me
Where they will never find us
Got stars at night to guide us
Lost at sea
Where they will never find us
Got stars at night to guide us

I think this song is about being friend zoned or being in-love with someone who doesn’t love you back.
“I was a boat drifting out into sea I had nothing but pieces of thoughts of the hope that you would see me I was a stone’s throw away from land But thousands and thousands of miles away from reaching your hand”
------In this part, he is talking about how he is so close to the person of interest (from this point on I’ll just assume it’s a girl) and yet at the same time, he’s still very far from that person as well. He is probably the girl’s friend and yet he wants to be more.------ “The waves that crashed upon The rocks that you were trying to walk along And in my head I heard them play a song For you and me”
------In this part, the girl is in some sort of struggle – possibly even a bad relationship that she is trying to fix. However, the singer can only see them together. He probably believes that it’d be better if they were together.------ “Let’s get lost at sea Where they will never find us Got stars at night to guide us Lost at sea Where they will never find us Got stars at night to guide us, yeah” ------He is saying that he doesn’t care, and that he wants to be with her no matter what. He wants them to fall in love and not have to care about anyone else. That some mystical force (the stars) will guide them.------
That makes sense, but i think it also means that the narrator wants to talk to this persons he's just to nervous to talk to them ya know :).
