Tomo‘s new single Ocean Breeze is the perfect soundtrack to the grey skies and rainy days that October brings.
The indie/folk singer-songwriter uses airy vocals and gentle instrumentals to mirror the sounds of the waves, the breeze and the echoes of the night-time ocean with this raspy, delicate song.
Ocean Breeze follows a narrative of love and how we co-depend on one another for support and growth.
One of the most impressive parts of this song’s composure is the airy “ooooh” vocals which sound like the whistling of the wind on the ocean which is synonymous with the song’s title.
“Watch you walk away, As the sunlight starts to fade, And I know you won’t be long, Counting down the days, I’ll be hiding from the rain, I’ll be longing for your touch”
The lyrics express how when his loved one goes away; nothing fills that void until their return, hiding from the outside world until he feels safe with them again.
If you have been looking for a moody, stunning and deep track to add to your October evening playlist, this is the one for you.

Tomo – Ocean Breeze Lyrics
Watch you walk away
As the sunlight starts to fade
And I know you won’t be long
Counting down the days
I’ll be hiding from the rain
I’ll be longing for your touch
I can’t sleep
I can’t weep
I can barely find the air in me to breathe
Can you see what you’ve done to me
You come and just like the ocean breeze
Running down my face
All these tears they feel misplaced
Your shadow lines the wall
Walking in the rain
Just to wash away the pain
I can’t sleep
I can’t weep
I can barely find the air in me to breathe
Can you see what you’ve done to me
You come and just like the ocean breeze
