Cover art for The Shore lyrics by Woodkid

The main character has been at war across the sea, I also get the impression he might even be a pirate or buccaneer, or other naval soldier. He has won battles and made money, but all of those wins are meaningless to him, because he longs for the love he left behind. He wonders if she is thinking of him, and at the same time, as we later learn, she wonders the same thing about him.
