Lyrics
Looking at an ocean view, ooo Every day the same adventure Look at the sea Chilling just me and you Every day I cook you dinner Catch of the day It's tuna again, your favorite Make it the way you like it Deserted on an island Reading your favorite book I'm watching a movie No one interrupting Me and you Looking at an ocean view That's all we'll do A quiet simple life In a seaside town No one around to bother us From important things like Sitting quietly Looking at an ocean view, ooo Looking at an ocean view, ooo Ooo ooo Take a walk around the island Not very big Be back in an hour or two Every day we go in circles Cause we got all we need around Me and you Looking at an ocean view That's all we'll do A quiet simple life In a seaside town No one around to bother us From important things like Sitting quietly Looking at an ocean view, ooo Looking at an ocean view, ooo Ooo ooo Looking at an ocean view, ooo Looking at an ocean view, ooo Ooo ooo Looking at an ocean view, ooo Looking at an ocean view, ooo Ooo ooo ooo
Content
Track four on Moonlight Beach, released as a standalone single ahead of the LP. EARMILK heard laidback summer guitar, bass grooves, and calm ocean-facing pop, a preview of the whole record's posture.
A deserted-island domestic fantasy that keeps shrinking the world to fit two people. The island is not very big, so every day we go in circles, which is the whole ambition rather than a complaint.
Less joke than Shrimp Burrito, less ecstatic than Feels So Good: ocean view as enough. Pairs with Tired of the Sunshine as the album's push-pull on California light.
Also on Catalog as 2023 single.
