LYRICS:
There goes my heart beating
'Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now
There goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
There goes my hands shaking
And you are the reason
My heart keeps bleeding
I need you now
If I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour, of every day
Keeping you safe
And I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
I don't wanna fight no more
I don't wanna hide no more
I don't wanna cry no more
Come back I need you to hold me
(You are the reason)
Come a little closer now
Just a little closer now
Come a little closer
I need you to hold me tonight
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
'Cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
BROOKLYN DUO BIO:
Founded in 2014, Brooklyn Duo has quickly established itself as one of today’s most successful classical crossover ensembles. Through its creative arrangements and live video performances, the piano and cello duo has garnered a huge following, with over 1.2 million YouTube subscribers and over 150 million streams annually on platforms such as Spotify and Pandora Radio.
In 2014, the couple arranged and recorded two pop covers and released them on YouTube. Shakira noticed the duo’s cover and promoted it to her 130 million-plus fan base, saying: “We're loving Brooklyn Duo's piano/cello cover of Empire! Great work guys." The boost that resulted from that exposure and the positive response they were getting on YouTube encouraged Marnie and Patrick to continue creating videos. (Other notable shout-outs since then include ones from Taylor Swift, a-ha and Pearl Jam.)
Today, Marnie and Patrick have released over 100 videos on their Brooklyn Duo YouTube channel and 10 albums of covers, spanning artists from The Beatles to Metallica to Ariana Grande. They also have a second YouTube channel, "Brooklyn Classical", which aims to introduce classical music to a larger audience through high quality, live video performances. Brooklyn Classical often hosts high-profile guest artists, including the world-renowned Dover and Escher string quartets, percussionist Ivan Trevino and cellist Cicely Parnas.
Popular classical music stations Classic FM and WQXR regularly share Brooklyn Duo’s music on their social media pages, with Classic FM calling the duo “masters of the artfully planned pop cover.” Their music has also been featured on several television shows, including Grey's Anatomy, Pretty Little Liars, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist and America's Got Talent.

🎧 About This Track
This 3 minutes audio journey has been thoughtfully composed to provide an authentic experience featuring ocean sounds that have been carefully recorded and mastered for optimal relaxation. Every element has been balanced to ensure a consistent experience throughout, without jarring transitions or sudden changes that might disrupt your relaxation. The audio quality maintains professional standards, making it suitable for high-quality speakers, headphones, or sleep systems.
These ocean waves have been recorded at the perfect distance to capture both the powerful rush of water meeting shore and the gentle recession of foam on sand. The cyclical nature of waves naturally guides breathing patterns toward deeper, more relaxed rhythms. Each wave is unique yet consistent, creating an endlessly engaging soundscape.
Listening to this audio can provide numerous benefits for both mental and physical well-being. Ocean waves naturally guide the listener into meditative states through their rhythmic patterns. The negative ions associated with ocean environments have been linked to improved mood and mental clarity. Regular listening can help establish healthy sleep patterns and reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Ocean waves produce what scientists call 'coherent' sound patterns - rhythmic, predictable sounds that the brain can easily process. Research from Brighton and Sussex Medical School found that natural water sounds trigger the rest-digest response in the autonomic nervous system. The tempo of ocean waves, typically around 12-15 cycles per minute, naturally aligns with relaxed breathing rates, creating a biofeedback loop that deepens relaxation. This may explain why coastal locations have long been associated with wellness and recuperation.
The community response to this audio has been genuinely appreciative, with 34,196 likes reflecting the genuine impact it has had on listeners worldwide. In the comments section, listeners share personal stories of how this audio has helped them through difficult times, aided their sleep, or provided a reliable source of calm during stressful periods. Common emotional responses include feeling blessed, demonstrating the profound effect well-crafted audio can have on our mental state. Many listeners return to this track regularly, considering it an essential part of their self-care routine. The consistent quality and reliable results have built a dedicated community of listeners who trust this audio for their relaxation needs.
To get the most from this audio experience, consider your listening environment and equipment. For sleep use, start the audio about 15-30 minutes before your intended sleep time, allowing your mind to gradually unwind. Keep the volume low enough to be comforting without being stimulating. Consider using a sleep timer if your device supports it, or embrace the extended length for uninterrupted rest through the night. Consistency in your listening routine can amplify benefits over time, as your mind learns to associate these sounds with relaxation.
This audio is particularly effective during: Evening wind-down routines and bedtime; Overnight for continuous sleep support; Nap time for quick restoration. The versatility of this track means it adapts well to various situations and times of day. Listen when you feel the need for calm, or make it part of your regular routine for cumulative benefits.
