Ocean (Acoustic) Lyrics

Reach out with my arms

Make out who you are

Pressure's been building up inside of me

For far too long

It's like a hurricane minus the destruction

It's like a piece of cake plus the complications

And I gotta get this thing off of my chest

It's for the best, oh

It's building up inside of me

It's something that I wanna do

But I don't have the courage to

Say it

It's surrounding me, it's surrounding me

All around me, all around me

And I have nowhere to go

I'm surrounded by the ocean

Nothing but the clear blue waters

I'm surrounded by the ocean

Nothing else to do but swim farther, yeah

I'm surrounded by the ocean

A beautiful prison

I'm surrounded by the ocean

This is how I feel when I have to say

I love you

Every night I recite these words to myself

I feel so confident that

I will surely do this thing right but

Whenever I approach you

It escapes my mind

It's like I do not know you when I

Try to say it, try to say it

It's building up inside of me

It's something that I wanna do

But I don't have the courage to

Say it, say it

It's surrounding me, it's surrounding me

All around me, all around me

And I have nowhere to go

I'm surrounded by the ocean

Nothing but the clear blue waters

Surrounded by the ocean

Nothing else to do but swim farther

Surrounded by the ocean

A beautiful prison

Surrounded by the ocean

This is how I feel when I have to say

I love you

And these three words go across my mind

Everyday

But they never seem to come out of my mouth

Sometimes I have to wonder, wonder

If it's meant to be, yeah

Because my swimming has got me nowhere

I'm about to drown right now

And I don't wanna die yet

I wanna say

I wanna say, oh

It's building up inside of me

This is something I wanna do

I don't have the courage to

It's surrounding me, it's surrounding me

All around me, all around me

Oh yeah

Surrounded by the ocean

Nothing but the clear blue waters

Surrounded by the ocean

Nothing else to do but swim farther

Surrounded by this beautiful prison, oh

Surrounded by the ocean

This how I feel when I have to say

The ocean, the ocean, the ocean, yeah

The ocean, the ocean, the ocean

Ohh, ohh

I love you
