Tide keeps creeping, squeezing me to row.. Sad surrender of the summertime of my soul.. Water will you wash me down and away.. Carry me home, to the place where I need to lay..
I still love the smell of mamas house. When somethings cookin on the stove. Still hug her neck when its time to go. Leavins always tough. Oh, therere some things you dont grow out of.
Hey, I see the trees are green again. Maybe, this time around you'll set the trend. Today's the day you make your mark, I'm sure. And if you don't, if you don't, then try the next door.
I woke up on The Battery on a Charleston Friday night. With my dirt-stained Corduroys and Balances crumpled up by my side. I said goodbye to my company, then I shook it on down the line.
Hate, hate is a word,. Hate is the only word that suits you.. Love, I'd love you to feel,. I'd love you to feel, feel the same as i do. . I, I wanna win,.
I wake up and find you next to me. Where I always hoped you'd be. And I recall, when we were both alone. Far from what we needed and where we needed to be.
It seems, to me. I've never seen today. I know the enemy is watching. So why don't you go. Always try to keep me so. I'm feeling is so cold. It seems, the water, never swim to deep.
A photograph left by my feet, reminds me of times once left behind. A distance, a well worn path, these things left to pass. But I feel that I've seen too many complications.
Looking out on these back streets that you brought me. All I see has been bought, kept for safety. Trade the rift of the change for the landing. Save the light for the few that's left standing.
A phtotgraph left by my feet reminds me of times once left behind. reminds me of times once left behind. a distance, A well worn fact. these things left to pass but I feel that I've seen to many complications Never going to waste my time.
There are those who wake up every morning. Pull the curtains back smilin at the sun. They hold their head high when the rain is pouring. Lay down in peace when the day is done.
One, two, three. . To every broken heart in here. Love was once a part but now it's disappeared. She told me that it's all part of the choices that you make.
Chorus:. I watch the sunset falling down. I hear the voices coming through this overcrowded town. And yes, I know that time it flies by so fast. You better find yourself something that lasts.
The Friday sun bears down again. As we drive without friends. And on these longest days we spend. All the time trying to pretend. . That our stories could be true.
I got a city folk friend in a hip-hop world. He goes by E. Diddy but his name is Earl. Cocks his hat to the side in his Grandma's ride. Pumpin' nothin' but bass.
Say goodbye to you but it always dies. It's taken aback to, so whatcha gonna do now. But you've got until sundown. Don't look too good, don't look too bright.
the sun is up and i'm on the rise. head to work but i'm feeling fine. seems like everybody i know has come around. we're just a small town. . when al and john and i were kids.
It's not that easy to believe that someone as fly as me would like someone like you. Take it easy baby too. Its exactly now and its daytime too. I don't know who you are but you haven't come that far.
So this award goes out to you. A dedication to the youth. From magazines for teens that really care. Care enough to want to prove. That the pretty ones.
The waves are settling down, and the sun has sunk into the sand. And the only calm this city gives is living in these ocean sounds. Well, it's not as bad as it could be, it's just not as good as I thought it would be.
