Ocean Avenue

And keep pretendin' the sun will not rise
We could leave this town and run forever
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
Let your waves crash down on me
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
Somewhere, somehow
We could leave this town and run forever
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I told you that this was goodbye
We're looking up at the same night sky
I remember the look in your eyes
If I could find you now things would get better
Let your waves crash down on me
We were both sixteen and it felt so right

There's a piece of you that's here with me
Stayin' up all night

If I could find you now things would get better
Stayin' up all night
We'll be together for one more night
Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night
We were both eighteen and it felt so right
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
And take me away, yeah

I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
That you're here tonight

I can make believe that you're here tonight
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We could leave this town and run forever
Not here, not now
And take me away, yea yea, yea
Let your waves crash down on me
If I could find you now things would get better
Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night
You were beggin' me not tonight
