Lyrics

Before

It's a new wave crashing in the ocean
Infinity, crystal creation
Memory whisper over water
Come with me, let's be like the ocean

Come wash the clouds away
Can't wait for summer
Come wash the clouds away
Can't wait for summer

Before I met you
(I love you more)
I was lost at sea
(I love you more)

It's a new wave crashing in the ocean
(I love you more)
Infinity, crystal creation
(I love you more)
Memory whisper over water
(I love you more)
Come with me, let's be like the ocean
(I love you more)

Come wash the clouds away
Can't wait for summer
Come wash the clouds away
Can't wait for summer

Life was just a photo
Faded on my desk while I was ruling the world
(I love you more)
Swim against the current
Losing my direction
But I did not left no one
(I love you more)

Before I met you
(I love you more)
I was lost at sea
(I love you more)
Before I met you
(I love you more)
I was lost at sea
(I love you more)

I won't be far from the ocean of you
Never undone, know where I'm done
I can't be far from whatever I need
Bluest ocean, bluer ocean
I won't be far from the ocean of you
Never undone, know where I'm done
I can't be far from whatever I need
Bluest ocean, bluer ocean
