I never knew you were standing on the shore,
It says everything,
Explains everything.
That from then on it couldn't be just like before,
it says everything,
Changes everything.
So don't you stand there wishing your life would fade away
And don't you go round with anyone who makes you feel ashamed.
Goodbye paradise,
I hope there's something you could try
Goodbye
You're so changed that you'd give it all away
Goodbye,
Goodbye
I saw your face in the faded light,
Said everything,
Explained everything.
It haunts all your days and it comes to you at night,
You did everything,
Blame anything.
But don't you cut those ribbons to take away the pain
And don't you go round with that same old crowd,
They make you feel ashamed
Goodbye paradise,
I hope there's something you could try
Goodbye
You're so changed that you'd give it all away
Goodbye,
Goodbye paradise
The sea,
The majestic sea,
Breaks everything,
Crushes everything,
Cleans everything,
Takes everything
From me

What is the meaning behind The Sea lyrics?
When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Corinne Bailey Rae's 'The Sea' is a song about the amazing or miracle-working nature of change, and the pros and cons of it, in which the sea is the symbol for the great and purifying entity of the difficulties in life. The sea lyrics mainly point out love, pain, and solitude, as well as the whole range of emotions leading up to and finally coming over the situation. During this, the song also highlights the positive side of change and loss, the fostering of hope and support, the passing of disbelief and staying away from bad company. The lyrics portray emotional suffering and at the same time they mention self-harm ('don't you cut those ribbons'), which could be a sensitive issue for less mature audiences.
