Let's go for a drive in your cherry red convertible, down to the beach where the moon hangs low. ~ce
i’ve danced this dance
tripped and fallen
broken hearts
had mine stolen
smiled and laughed
right on cue
kicked myself
for loving you
from dawn to dusk
and back to dawn
you were the one
but now you’re gone

She listened to music each morning
She read by soft lights at night
The summer she stayed in the bright yellow cottage
Down by the deep blue sea
Each day she sat on the beach
Picking at shells and foam
Her needs were small for she came to stay
In hopes of reclaiming her soul
The day came when she cried out loud
At last she let it all go
She sat in the rain next to the sea
Asking what would become of her
Tell me what I should do she prayed
Please send me a sign so I’ll know
If you can’t do this for me then take me now
For I can’t go on anymore
The answer came from a stranger
Who sat on the beach that day
A stranger who came to save her life
And never turn her away
For you see she was the stranger
She learned to reclaim her soul
That summer she stayed in the bright yellow cottage
Down by the deep blue sea

I met some people along the way
Crazy as the night and day
They twisted truths to meet their needs
Then shared their lies and dirty deeds
They cried to anyone who’d listened
Then turned their truths as swords against them
There are no questions to be asked
Actions answered all at last
