NIKI – Oceans & Engines Lyrics

Artist: NIKI
Song: Oceans & Engines

Saturday sunset
We’re lying on my bed with five hours to go
Fingers entwined and so were our minds
Crying, I don’t want you to go

You wiped away tears
But not fears under the still and clear indigo
You said “Baby, don’t you cry, we’ll be fine”
“You’re the one thing I swear I can’t outgrow”

My mother said the younger me was a pretending prodigy
Well, nothing then much has changed
‘Cause while you’re wolfing down liquor
My soul, it gets sicker

But I’m sticking to the screenplay
Gotta say I’m okay
But answer this babe
How is it now that somehow you’re a strangеr?

You were mine just yеsterday
I prayed the block in my airway dissipate
And instead deters your airplane’s way
But heaven denied

Destiny decried
Something beautiful died
Too soon
But I’m letting go-o-ooh

I’m giving up the ghost
But don’t get me wrong—
I’ll always love you
That’s why I wrote you this very last song

I guess this is where we say goodbye
I know I’ll be alright
Someday I’ll be fine
But just not tonight

Oo-oo-ooh
Plunging into all kinds of diversion—
Like blush wine and sonorous soirees
But even with gin and surgin’ adrenaline

I see you’re all that can intoxicate
Oceans and engines
You’re skilled at infringin’ on great love affairs
Because now my heart’s home

All I’ve known is long gone and ten thousand miles away
And I’m not okay
But I’m letting go-o-ooh
I’m giving up the ghost

But don’t get me wrong—
I’ll always love you
That’s why I wrote you this very last song
I guess this is where we say goodbye

I know I’ll be alright
But just not—
Tonight was the first time I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago
And the first time I learned real world superpowers lived in three words—

And could revitalize my fraying bones
Hmm
Now what do you do when your pillar crumbled down
You’ve lost all solid ground

Both dreams and demons drowned
This void’s all you’ve found—
And doubts light it aglow
I have so many questions

But I’m pouring them into the ocean
And I’m starting up my engine
And I’m letting go
I’m giving up your ghost

It’s come to a close
I marked the end with this last song I wrote
I’m letting go
This is the last falsetto I’ll ever sing to you—

My great lost love
