    Moon River is about two lovers, slowly drifting apart as they take on different paths in life, but, however sad that may be for both of them, they know it’s the best thing to do, and as they move on, memories, wether good or bad will still remain.
    There is still a sense of attachment, felt by the two, “wherever you’re going, I’m going the same”, but they know they’ll have to keep going.
    This really brings back memories.

      I’m in that phase of life rn. But pretty sure I’m the only one left with dealing with the feeling of sense of attachment while the other person probably already happily moved on with someone new. This song hits hard specially after reading your comment and leaves a bittersweet feeling. What’s funny is that he was the same person who introduced me to Frank’s songs.

    Moon river wider than a mile
    I'm crossing you in style someday
    A dream maker
    My heartbreaker
    Wherever you're going I'm going that way
    Two drifters off to see the world
    There's such a crazy world to see
    We're all chasing after all the same
    Chasing after our rainbow's end
    Moon river wider than a mile
    Crossing in style someday
    My dream maker
    Heartbreaker
    Wherever you're going I'm going the same
    Two drifters off to see the world
    It's such a crazy world you'll see
    We're all chasing after our end
    Chasing after our ends
    Life just around the bend my friend
    Moon river and me

    My brother passed away last month, and this song takes on a meaning for me that represents crossing to the other side when my time comes to see him again one day. When he died a part of me died too, and this song makes me think of him every time I listen to it as a reminder that he is in a better place.

    For anyone who wants to play this on guitar, here's how :)
    The whole song is based on this one, long chord progression with a single down strum per chord! It repeats about 4 times through the whole song.
    C, Am, F, C, F, C, Bm7, E7
    Am, G, F, Fm, C, Am, F, G
    The only part that is different is after Frank stops singing at the very end, that part just repeats this:
    C, Am, F, G
    Hope that helps out! If you get stuck or need any extra help, I just uploaded a video lesson for this on my channel :)

This song is a reminder that some of the most wonderful things in life are finite (we are no longer together) but that's okay! We're all following our moon rivers and often that means parting ways with those we love. I keep on scrolling through these comments hoping he'll be here too commenting , reminiscing ... So far I've had no luck ... (As cliche as this is) Brandon I love you I hope our paths cross again.

It made me go from thinking about that I may be chasing someone that I think I may be falling in love with, to realizing that I mostly am chasing and longing for my own self love and freedom. It made me ponder what I love the most at the core.. expression. I still do feel that this song reminds me of the person I care for.. but it mainly reminds me that I should be chasing my dreams and higher purpose as an individual. Thanks for this dope version Frank, it really spoke to me 🙏🏾

    So many viewers here don't realize this is a cover of a Henry Mancini song (the guy who created the pink panther theme). It's from the 1960s and the key song for Brekfast at Tiffany with Audrey Hepburn.
    Moon river is a river in Georgia (USA), where the lyricist Johnny Mercer grew up. The song is actually about a person reliving his fond childhood memories and chasing happiness and impossible goals.
    Despite the somber tone, it's actually a positive song about realizing that the narrator may never actually achieve their dream/goals, but they enjoy the journey.

    i will never hear this song without thinking of my ex. i never met his maternal grandma who had passed, but he would always saw how much she loved this song. i dont think she had ever heard frank ocean's version, but it's just perfect. and as for my ex, i truly hope that i get the chance to see him again and thank him for everything he taught me and the way he so patiently loved me. it's one of those relationships where i was happy in so many ways and also so in my head overthinking and not at a point where i was comfortable asserting myself & being fully honest. covid hit about 6 months after we met so that threw us for a loop and revealed so much about our world and ourselves but instead of taking actions to better myself and get where I wanted and needed to be, I ended up taking a lot of my frustrations out on him and becoming very nit picky and just not the type of supportive partner that I was so obsessed with having him be for me. it's all still so fresh and brings me so much pain and shame to see now in hindsight how awful i was to him in so many ways. i know i cant go back and im working on accepting that and living in the present. i still have so much love for him and i hope in some way he can still feel that, even in spite of my actions. we really both are two drifters off to see the world and i love that, this song, youtube comments sections, and anyone who can relate in any way.

      Tell him your sorry despite if he wants to get back or not, but don't say that in your sorry.
      Just focus your sorry on him, not on getting back or not.
      If it seems like a good welcoming forgiving response from him, you can try asking to get back with him, and that you'll bring it show it this time you've changed if you truly were in the wrong there.
