Beaches Lyrics – beabadoobee

[Verse 1]
Spinning out on words to say or work to do
Finding reasons from my cousins ***
Said I see it to believe it
But who knows the actual truth?
But I’m sure now
I’m sure

[Chorus]
‘Cause days been a one when I’m on the right beaches
And the walls painted white they tell me all the secrets
Don’t wait for the tide just to dip both your feet in
‘Cause I’m sure now
I’m sure
[Verse 2]
Find it hard to say that I know I’m alright
Took a while to finally realise that when I see it, I believe it
Giving me a piece of mind
But I’m sure now
I’m sure

[Chorus]
‘Cause days been a one when I’m on the right beaches
And the walls painted white they tell me all the secrets
Don’t wait for the tide just to dip both your feet in
‘Cause I’m sure now
I’m sure

Someday
I’m afraid of falling down
But I only understand the common outcome
Pick it up if I allow it
Can’t help it
Can’t help

[Chorus]
‘Cause days been a one when I’m on the right beaches
And the walls painted white they tell me all the secrets
Don’t wait for the tide just to dip both your feet in
‘Cause I’m sure now
I’m sure

[Verse 1]
The first verse reflects a state of confusion and uncertainty, symbolized by feeling adrift in a sea of indecision. The speaker struggles to articulate their thoughts or find direction, seeking clarity from external sources, possibly family or friends. Despite doubts, they express a newfound confidence in their convictions, suggesting a shift towards self-assurance and belief in their own perceptions.

[Chorus]
The chorus evokes a sense of contentment and certainty experienced when the speaker is metaphorically “on the right beaches.” These beaches represent moments of clarity and peace, where the walls painted white symbolize purity and openness. Encouraging action without hesitation, the lyrics emphasize the importance of seizing opportunities and trusting one’s instincts, now that the speaker feels assured and grounded.

[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the speaker grapples with self-assurance and acceptance of their well-being. Initially hesitant to acknowledge their own stability, they gradually come to realize and appreciate their state of mind. This realization brings them peace, indicating a newfound sense of security and confidence in their ability to navigate life’s challenges.

[Chorus]
Repeated from earlier, the chorus reaffirms the speaker’s newfound confidence and certainty. The imagery of being on the “right beaches” remains central, emphasizing the importance of recognizing moments of clarity and peace. Additionally, the mention of fearing failure and the inevitability of setbacks underscores the speaker’s acknowledgment of life’s uncertainties, but their resolve to persevere remains unwavering.
