There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiiight
Staying up all ni-iiight
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiight
Staying up all ni-iight
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We could leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah
(verse)
Theres a piece of you that's here with me
Its 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
(chorus)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We could leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah
or
Then:
I remember that look in your eyes
When I told you this was good bye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here
Not now
We look up at the same night sky
We keep pretending the sun will not rise
We'll be together for one more night
Some where
Some how
(Chorus Chords)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We would leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yea
