There's a place off Ocean Avenue

Where I used to sit and talk with you

We were both sixteen and it felt so right

Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night

Stayin' up all night

♪ ♪ ♪

There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street

We would walk on the beach in our bare feet

We were both eighteen and it felt so right

Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night

Stayin' up all night

If I could find you now things would get better

We could leave this town and run forever

Let your waves crash down on me and take me away-ay, yeah

♪ ♪ ♪

There's a piece of you that's here with me

It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see

When I sleep, I dream, and it gets me by

I can make-believe that you're here tonight

That you're here tonight

If I could find you now things would get better

We could leave this town and run forever

I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together

Let your waves crash down on me and take me away, yeah

♪ ♪ ♪

I remember the look in your eyes

When I told you that this was goodbye

You were begging me, "Not tonight"

"Not here, not now"

We're looking up at the same night sky

And keep pretendin' the sun will not rise

We'll be together for one more night

Somewhere, somehow

If I could find you now things would get better

We could leave this town and run forever

I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together

Let your waves crash down on me and take me away-ay, yeah

♪ ♪ ♪
