"Ocean blue
What have i done to you
Cut so deep
Yet growing through and through"
The man begins his journey, overseas (Ocean Blue). He is experiencing a duality of conflicting feelings of hurt and potential for growth.
"Drawn apart
New York and London
All i see now are distant drummings
The roads i knew became a city
And i wonder will you wait for me, oh"
The man has left his home in road-filled London for New York City. His relationship in London is now a long distance relationship, and he is worried that she will abandon him.
"Go, i'm far away
I know i'll stay
I know i'll stay right there with you
No it might be too late
What would you say
What would you say
What would you do"
The man expresses his commitment to the relationship although he's overseas. He's still worried about the strain the distance puts on the relationship.
I built a hive
Became one with the bees
But we fell like rain
Got lost into the sea
If i don't know the wind will carry me
So just hold tight
He tries to integrate into NYC society (Built a hive, became one with the bees). The relationship was struggling (we fell like rain, got lost into sea) and he starts to doubt staying in NYC (if I don't know the wind will carry me, so just hold tight).
"Over and over many setting suns
I have run
I have waited for the rain to come
When through the mist
I see [the shape of you]
And i know
I know that i'm in love with you"
The man has been in NYC for a long time, awaiting for himself to return to rainy London (waiting for the rain to come). He finally has returned, and sees his lover through the mist. Their love is renewed.
