Ocean Avenue Lyrics

[00:06.07] There's a place off Ocean Avenue
[00:08.88] Where I used to sit and talk with you
[00:11.53] We were both sixteen and it felt so right
[00:14.43] Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night
[00:21.18] Stayin' up all night
[00:25.84]
[00:27.96] There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
[00:30.92] We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
[00:33.67] We were both eighteen and it felt so right
[00:36.52] Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night
[00:43.26] Stayin' up all night
[00:48.70] If I could find you now things would get better
[00:54.67] We could leave this town and run forever
[01:00.13] Let your waves crash down on me and take me away, yeah
[01:08.31]
[01:12.37] There's a piece of you that's here with me
[01:15.06] It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
[01:17.81] When I sleep, I dream, and it gets me by
[01:20.69] I can make believe that you're here tonight
[01:27.43] That you're here tonight
[01:32.72] If I could find you now things would get better
[01:38.87] We could leave this town and run forever
[01:44.22] I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
[01:49.83] Let your waves crash down on me and take me away, yeah
[01:57.66]
[02:13.04] I remember the look in your eyes
[02:15.83] When I told you that this was goodbye
[02:18.59] You were begging me, "Not tonight"
[02:20.59] "Not here, not now"
[02:23.99] We're looking up at the same night sky
[02:26.66] And keep pretendin' the sun will not rise
[02:29.47] We'll be together for one more night
[02:31.53] Somewhere, somehow
[02:33.94] If I could find you now things would get better
[02:39.54] We could leave this town and run forever
[02:44.92] I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
[02:50.77] Let your waves crash down on me and take me away, yeah
[02:56.48]
