Ocean Eyes Lyrics

I've been watching you
For some time
Can't stop staring
At those oceans eyes
Burning cities
And napalm skies
Fifteen flares inside those ocean eyes
Your ocean eyes
No fair
You really know how to make me cry
When you gimme those ocean...

    Like I write books in my mind I think the person falls in love with this guy but he thinks she's a freak cause she has different eye colors. Everyone talks about her and they just judge her! So she wears sunglasses to cover her eye colors and the fact she cries. But the guy from the group finds her interesting and wonders what's so wrong with her? So his friends make a bet with him to try and make her fall for him! So he ends up talking to her asking her questions and starts to slowly fall for her! so, in my opinion, I think this is how I think of ocean eyes!

    "Ocean Eyes" don't exactly have to be blue eyes. Maybe it rather means that the person...crys alot? "Diamond mind" I think is meant that the person has a beautiful mind that outshines through the perspectives of other people. It's rather unique?

    I believe its about Billie falling for another person but she really doesn't want to but the feelings are difficult to fight when she looks into those "ocean eyes"

    I personally think this song is about Billie falling in love with someone who has really pretty blue eyes, hence the name “Ocean Eyes”. He’s not the greatest boyfriend and doesn’t treat her very well, but she’s debating whether or not to break up with him.

    Something about her trying to tell her boyfriend about a breakup or something. But I guess she she looks in his "Ocean Eyes" she feels bad. No FAAAAAIIIR HE HAS HYPNOSIS ON MEEEEEEEEEE.

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

    The girl is scared because she did something that he is not aware of and if he found out he would be mad and he doesn't know what it is but it makes his eyes seem like an ocean because he cant imagine what she hides and just makes her think hes hurting so she would feel for him, even though she is usually sad because of him this time she is sad for him.

    Do you all realize your are talking about yourselves when posting your interpretation?

    In fact, her brother (you all know this) wrote the song not Billie.

    The song is beautiful and beautifully sung. It is not as deep as you all are trying to make it.

    It's about a man. When Billie Eilish looks in his eyes.

    it might be about falling for a guy, like if she sees him for the first time she falls in his "ocean eyes" and theyre so deep she cant come back up for air. metaphors people, metaphors! LOVE U BILLIE!

    I see this as Billie’s blue eyes because in her song, you should see me in a crown, she sings: Fell for these ocean eyes...”

    From my perspective, this song is about someone falling for a guy. I don't really know if I have a strong interpretation of this, but she likes him because of his "sharpness" and how he can differentiate from others, like how he has a "diamond mind" and "ocean eyes". Which set him apart from others, even if she has no chance with him

    I read the lyrics from Another possible perspective: the writer has admired an older (possibly married) woman, but now finds him/herself falling hard for her. She’s smart and attractive, but may have experienced something devastating that has left her sad and lonely. The writer struggles with the feelings they are experiencing.

    Ocean Eyes by Billie Eilish, it's real meaning is available at wikipedia website. The latest comment by a young girl, sort of explained the lyrics like it was between a guy and a girl.
