Memorial Day

[00:09.14] On Memorial Day
[00:13.49] We waited for a train
[00:17.52] Put our hand in our pockets thinking no one was watching
[00:21.34] Kissed and said, "I hope it doesn't rain"
[00:25.98] On Memorial Day
[00:29.95] We boarded that train
[00:33.53] With the children wearing sunscreen
[00:35.93] Parents and their money ready for the day
[00:41.48] What a strange start to the week
[00:45.45] Where for five dollars you can shoot a freak
[00:49.35] When you walked away quickly, you said it wasn't for you
[00:52.27] I said, "No me too, that certainly isn't for me"
[00:56.32] And with our feet in the sand
[00:59.41] We felt the love slip from between our hands
[01:04.21] Maybe if we hold on, we can hold on so long
[01:07.94] It would never have to end
[01:12.47] On Memorial Day
[01:18.92] We tought we spotted a bit of rain
[01:23.12] We held out our hands, let our palms get a tan
[01:26.83] And waited to see if the sky might break
[01:30.21] And with that small little moment
[01:33.07] We tought that we could make it
[01:36.82] Lying on the blanket with fingers and hands covered in sand
[01:41.63] Promise me you'll never leave, I don't think I could take it
[01:47.53] But of course the rain never came
[01:51.98] Nor the feeling that we could be saved
[01:56.15] For if we turn back, if we ever turn back
[01:59.70] We will never be the same
[02:04.04] At the end of the day
[02:08.19] When the light finally let the sky break
[02:12.17] At an outdoor train station, the weather grew impatient
[02:16.18] We kissed for the last time and parted ways
[02:20.38] And if you're ever by the sea, I hope you'll think of me
[02:26.80] As we were that Memorial Day
[02:33.23] When our love, we tought that it could still be saved
[02:37.48] With beautiful distractions, afternoon affections
[02:41.66] Coney Island in the rain
[02:45.66]
