Nelson Gatlin - Beach Song Lyrics




And I'm alone again
3AM and I'm still living
These old crutches will kill me
If only I'd let them
I let the night sleep
If only I could keep it
My heart sunk an hour ago
Like the lights on the water

The beach is quiet now, like I'm trying to be
I wish she was here right now
I'm sure she'd listen to me

Sometimes the ocean beckons me
I pretend that I can't swim
Her hymns only depress me
With caresses cold and grim
But I'm sailing all the time
I'm with her in my mind
She loves me more than life
But life's not worth my time

And I will live alone
Long enough to feel her here
Much like all the years, the years

Two miles due south
I threw away my reason
Tossed it to the water
And let it drown

Maybe I should put my drink down
And retire like the others
But my mind is running miles now
And tears nearly come

I know I'll be alone
At least til late morning comes
But I won't turn out the lights for a while

This summer I'll jump off the edge
I'll fall in love again
Will it be worth it in the end?

And I'm alone again
3AM and I'm still living
These old crutches will kill me
If only I'd let them
I let the night sleep
If only I could keep it
My heart sunk an hour ago
Like the lights on the water

The beach is quiet now, like I'm trying to be
I wish she was here right now
I'm sure she'd listen to me

Sometimes the ocean beckons me
I pretend that I can't swim
Her hymns only depress me
With caresses cold and grim
But I'm sailing all the time
I'm with her in my mind
She loves me more than life
But life's not worth my time

And I will live alone
Long enough to feel her here
Much like all the years, the years

Two miles due south
I threw away my reason
Tossed it to the water
And let it drown

Maybe I should put my drink down
And retire like the others
But my mind is running miles now
And tears nearly come

I know I'll be alone
At least til late morning comes
But I won't turn out the lights for a while

This summer I'll jump off the edge
I'll fall in love again
Will it be worth it in the end?
