Beach Dream - By The Coast

Drive your car down to the sea All the while you build a scheme Take her hand and walk on with her Make it real, your summer dream Smell the warm and salty air See a wave reflect a beam Stop and find a pretty shell for her Make it real, your summer dream See another couple over there To them an ordinary day Soon you wonder where the time has gone The sun has almost slipped away Now it's gone and you're alone In her eyes you see a gleam Time has come for you to show your love Make it real, your summer dream Make it real, your summer dream Make it real, your summer dream

I promise you're not wasting (wasting) anybody's time (anybody's time) And all the things they've told you are so goddamn rough, I understand They said your friends will hurt you And your friends don't really care You told me you're their daughter And they treat you this way just to keep you safe So, please listen clearly, I love you dearly It hurts to see you so torn apart like this Another sleepless night to laugh about the times we tried to die With heavy eyes, I'll stay awake with you And we'll keep us alive when the morning comes In here, you'll be okay When your heart breaks, I'll be beside you So, please stay here with me Breathe in, like waves on a glass beach I stopped taking calls for the first time, then I cut off my phone line And took the Highway One for nowhere south When Yuki said I should just call up family and tell them how I felt No one who loves you should make you feel so unsafe No, no one who loves you should make you feel alone In here, you'll be okay And when your heart breaks, I'll be beside you So, please stay here with me Breathe in, like waves on a glass beach Blood in your veins The blood on your hands So stop it, you're fucking hurting her Can we forget about the places that we should be? We don't have to go home today I'll sleep on a million couches if we have to, to keep us both safe Until we can take back the years they've stolen from us We'll always live like we're hopeless kids But when we're with all our friends Can we just pretend that no one can hurt us? 'Cause hey, I love you, okay? It's so hard to say that I fucking need you too Tonight, when they close their eyes Look up to the sky and climb up the moonlight It's ours, the moon and the stars They'll forget who we were and we'll be together again Sleep 'til the sun sets Sleep 'til the sun sets Sleep 'til the sun sets The summer sun sets

In the east coast, in the west coast Trough the middle of the city In the north shore, in the south shore Through the middle of the commonwealth I will be rocking, for you I will be rolling, for you I will be rocking and a rolling, for you On the east side, on the west side All around the town In the north pole, in the south pole All over the world, huh I will be rocking, for you I will be rolling, for you I will be rocking and a rolling, for you From the first mile, to the tenth mile Were the rock 'n' roller city On the right side, on the road side All over the land I will be rocking, for you I will be rolling, for you I will be rocking and a rolling, for you... ow! From the right bank, to the left bank With a stone that couldn't find the land From the midland, to the outland On the orient express... yeah From the gulf coast, to the gulf coast Through the middle of the valley At the north sky, at the south sky Through the middle of the universe I will be rocking, for you I will be rolling, for you I will be rocking and a rolling, for you... ohh

Canadian cold Canadian cheer I couldn't spend another winter up here In this desolate fishing town Counting the months as they wear me down Watch over your flock The cracks in the ice will swallow them up The lake needs to eat just like all living things And it's hungriest in the spring Now you know What's eating me Taking hold It was dragging me down It was dragging me down The town is always on alert In the spring, they patrol the coast, fearing the worst But no one can seem to accept the fact The lake gives us life, and she takes it back Now you know What's eating me Taking hold It was dragging me down Down in the valley where they found the body, it was growing cold Now you know What's eating me Taking hold It was dragging me down It was dragging me down Now you know Now you know Now you know What's eating me Moved on, another girl had gone missing Last anyone heard, she'd gone out to go fishing The cracks in the lake make a mighty fine grave in the summer thaw

Jump onto new streets, jump onto new streets Jump onto new streets, jump onto new streets Jump onto new streets, jump onto new streets Me, I'm from a different type of left land, old wild west land Nose bleeds, palm trees and tumbleweeds rustling Outside they say it's happy here but it's depressin' Too many pretty faces catchin' my attention So I look at 'em, remind myself in this smudged glass That pretty isn't everything, you punkass Always hard to see past the surface when it looks so perfect But her eyes will disguise dirt on purpose, you listening? I grew up here, under the sun In grade school, I was the odd one out of the bunch And I don't mean I was the kid to eat bugs for lunch I was the one who wasn't comin' from where they're comin' from, uh I speak poetically and never pride my ignorance But this California shit is rigorous They say it's happy here, happiness is figurative I'm happy 'cause of me, doesn't matter where I'm livin' If the sun was God, I'd be covered in faith If the ocean was the devil, I'd be covered in hate I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm waking up underneath sheets, naked, still sweating Slept in late so everybody else is ready My friend called up, he said, "Hurry up, buddy, it's almost sundown already" So I hopped up, I went and washed up I ate some pasta then I gave my mom hugs And then I thought, uh It's gonna be a pretty nice night (But pretty isn't everything, right?) Golden state mind, I'm taking my time Plain white shirt and a skinny black tie My top let down when I get picked up, PCH, so California Maybe they were right, happiness is a warm gun But before you shoot, please, warn us Life is too fun, California, will you marry me? Let God be the sun and in the ocean they shall bury me If the sun was God, I'd be covered in faith If the ocean was the devil, I'd be covered in hate I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame I'm so west coast, it's a goddamn shame It's a goddamn shame

A family of musicians took shelter for the night In the little harbor church of St. Cecilia Two guitars, bata, bass drum and tambourine Rose of Jericho and Bougainvillea This is a lonely life Sorrows everywhere you turn And that's worth something When you think about it That's worth some money That's worth something When you think about it That is worth some money A trip to the market A trip into the pearl gray morning sunlight That settles over Washington A trip to the market A trip around the world Where the evening meal Is negotiable, if there is one. This is a lonely-lone, lonely life Sorrows everywhere you turn And that's worth something When you think about it That's worth some money That's worth something When you think about it That is worth some money To prove that I love you Because I believe in you Summer skies, stars are falling All along the injured coast If I have money If I have children Summer skies, stars are falling All along the injured coast Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo-wop a Doo-wah Summer skies and stars are falling All along the injured coast Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo-wop a Doo-wah Summer skies and the stars are falling We are standing in the sunlight The early morning sunlight In the harbor church of St. Cecilia To praise a soul's returning to the earth To the rose of Jericho and the Bougainvillea This is the only life And that's worth something When you think about it That's worth some money That's worth something When you think about it That is worth some money To prove that I love you Because I believe in you Summer skies, stars are falling All along the injured coast If I have money If I have children Summer skies, stars are falling All along the injured coast If I have weaknesses Don't let them blind me now Summer skies, stars are falling All along the injured coast Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo Wop a Doo Wah Summer skies and stars are falling Leaving the shadow of the valley behind me now All along the injured coast Ooh-wah Oow-wah Doo Wop a Doo Wah Summer skies and stars are falling All along the injured coast Ooh-wah Ooh-wah Doo Wop a Doo Wah
