Artist/Band: Frank Ocean
Lyrics for Song: Strawberry Swing
Lyrics for Album: Nostalgia Ultra [2011]



When we were kids

We hand-painted strawberries on a swing

Every moment was so precious then



I'm still kicking it

I'm daydreaming on a strawberry swing

The entire earth is fighting

All the world is at its end



Just in case an atom bomb comes falling on my lawn

I should say and you should hear

I've loved, I've loved the good times here

I've loved our good times here



Say hello then say farewell

To the places you know

We are all mortals, aren't we?

Any moment this could go



Cry, cry, cry, oh, oh, oh, even though that won't change a thing

But you should know, you should hear

That I have loved, I have loved the good times here

And I will miss our good times here



Spaceships are lifting off of a dying world

And millions are left behind while the sky burns

There wasn't room for you and I

Only you, goodbye, goodbye



Now the sky could be blue, I don't mind

Without you it's a waste of time

Could be blue, I don't mind

Without you it's a waste of time



Could be blue, could be gray

Without you I'm just miles away

The sky could be blue, I don't mind

Without you it's a waste of time


Strawberry Swing

The track features a distinctive, looping vocal melody that builds into a lush, atmospheric arrangement, reflecting Ocean's ability to weave personal narrative with sonic texture. Released during a pivotal era for his career, the song exemplifies the introspective and emotionally complex style that would later define his work on *Channel Orange*. It remains a notable example of his early discography, characterized by its moody production and the enigmatic delivery that has captivated listeners and critics alike. The recording stands as a testament to his unique approach to blending vocal performance with ambient soundscapes.
