Lryical analysis

Off by heart...

The stars are aligned, but they don't align for us
Excuse me for I am the ocean, and I will starve for you.
Will you know how to stay brave?
Such fragile moments we share
You are my everything
Even with nothing to say

I see these lyrics as being about two people that love each other "The stars are aligned" but cannot be together for whatever reason "But they don't align for us"

"I will starve for you" sounds like he is prepared to do anything to make the relationship work and "Will you know how to stay brave?" is asking the girl to stay strong in the relationship.

"Such fragile moments we share You are my everything Even with nothing to say " Even though he knows the relationship is over but he still holds onto the memories he has of it


The Girl

I wish I could do better by you, 'cause that's what you deserve
You sacrifice so much of your life in order for this to work.
While I'm off chasing my own dreams, sailing around the world
Please know that I'm yours to keep, my beautiful girl.
And when you cry a piece of my heart dies, knowing that I may have been the cause
If you were to leave, fulfill someone elses dreams, I think I might totally be lost.
But you don't ask for no diamond rings, no delicate string of pearls
That's why I wrote this song to sing, my beautiful girl.

I'd say the general meaning of this song is that he feels guilty because he is always away with his carreer and leaving his girlfriend or wife at home alone. "I wish I could do better by you, 'cause that's what you deserve" "While I'm off chasing my own dreams, sailing around the world"
He promises to stay faithful to her "Please know that I'm yours to keep, my beautiful girl." He realises that he knows he can trust her and that she is a genuine person "you don't ask for no diamond rings, no delicate string of pearls"
