There's a handwritten note Pressed in the door Of her screened-in porch And I am sailing away Recalling that day Miles from shore She was still wearing white And Robin's egg blue Her grandmother's dress When I left early this year How I wound up here Is anyone's guess When the new sites grow old And I start to feel cold I'll sail home again Goodbye, Brielle Only whispers can tell Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well I'll see you around Our dear ocean town The frozen days We set ablaze Sent me drifting away Like a butterfly You floated by And now you're alone I wish I knew when I'll be back again So until then I wish you well My dear Brielle My dear Brielle Strolling over the sand In cobblestone paths That wind through the trees Breathing the sweet forest air Makes a bluebird aware That she could be free When the new sites grow old And I start to feel cold I'll sail home again Goodbye, Brielle Only whispers can tell Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well I'll see you around Our dear ocean town The frozen days We set ablaze Sent me drifting away Like a butterfly You floated by And now you're alone I wish I knew when I'll be back again So until then I wish you well So until then I wish you well I love you, my darling, farewell My dear Brielle
For some reason, listening to this, I think this song would be lovely to slow dance to at a wedding, either with lyrics or just as an instrumental… no matter which way, it‘d be beautiful. ❤️
Here's an interesting fact from Wikipedia: Musician Adam Young of the group Owl City wrote the song "Brielle" after having read Shadow Divers: "Brielle is a little town on the coast of New Jersey. I wrote the song after reading Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson in which he recounts the discovery of a World War II German U-boat sixty miles off the U.S. coast in 1991. The song describes a sailor who is about to leave on a long trip and wonders whether he will ever see the girl he loves again."

Thank you for this. I get so sad seeing that comments on old Owl City songs were from 5+ years ago, so I always am so excited to see more recent comments like yours. :) Hope you are doing well now in 2023
Wow. =O What do you use to remove the vocals? Thisis sooo calming. Could you make instrumentals for Tenth Avenue North - Don't Stop The Madness and Strangers Here? Or Switchfoot - The Blues and Yet? THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
I'm glad you liked it! Sorry I don't make instrumentals anymore as they violate youtube's copyright infringement. I can try but I just don't want anymore strikes on my account :(
StarShootex Oh, alright then, I'm sorry. :/ And what program did you use? It's so perf, there's no voice in the background. Usually when someone tries to remove vocals it's still there. Well, maybe you could make a new account? haha I don't force you if you don't want to, but maybe you could avoid problems that way... just a suggestion. :D BUT REALLY LET ME KNOW WHAT PROGRAM DID YOU USE :D
this is definitely the best instrumental of this song I've heard :O would you mind if I maybe used this for a cover? I can put a link to your channel in the description if you want :3

It's 2021, and this still sounds as magical as the first time I heard it.
There's a handwritten note
Pressed in the door
Of her screened-in porch
And I am sailing away
Recalling that day
Miles from shore
She was still wearing white
And Robin's egg blue
Her grandmother's dress
When I left early this year
How I wound up here
Is anyone's guess
When the new sites grow old
And I start to feel cold
I'll sail home again
Goodbye, Brielle
Only whispers can tell
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well
I'll see you around
Our dear ocean town
The frozen days
We set ablaze
Sent me drifting away
Like a butterfly
You floated by
And now you're alone
I wish I knew when
I'll be back again
So until then I wish you well
My dear Brielle
My dear Brielle
Strolling over the sand
In cobblestone paths
That wind through the trees
Breathing the sweet forest air
Makes a bluebird aware
That she could be free
When the new sites grow old
And I start to feel cold
I'll sail home again
Goodbye, Brielle
Only whispers can tell
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well
I'll see you around
Our dear ocean town
The frozen days
We set ablaze
Sent me drifting away
Like a butterfly
You floated by
And now you're alone
I wish I knew when
I'll be back again
So until then I wish you well
So until then I wish you well
I love you, my darling, farewell
My dear Brielle
this song is magic
For some reason, listening to this, I think this song would be lovely to slow dance to at a wedding, either with lyrics or just as an instrumental… no matter which way, it‘d be beautiful. ❤️
The lyrics would sound off at a wedding though, considering it's a farewell song
Beautiful as always. 10 years
so good! it actually sounds like it should.
Truly beautiful song and melody !
