I'll meet you at the carousel
We'll spin around the world in parallel
Hold hands and look away, acting shy
Feeling your heart-rate race one beat at a time
Let me try to remind you
Of when we were young
Like that first day I met you
'Fore I fell in love
'Fore that day you were cold and jaded
'Fore your feeling for me slowly faded
Try to get back all the life we wasted
Back to that time
Late October, when the fall gets cold
With your scarf and rosy cheeks
Match my leather, perfect weather for the beach
That's where I'll be
Oh I, oh I, oh I
Wait by the ocean
Wait 'till it's frozen
The smell of cotton candy in the air (Mmm)
You move around and get it in your hair
My hands shake a little as I try
To focus on the task at hand, not your eyes
Take it back to that time you
Held me in your arms
Part of my soul in your lungs, you
Spoke me into love
Said those magic words that I resisted
But when I said 'em, I knew I existed
Wanted to fight it, but instead I kissed it
Into my life
In October, when the fall gets cold
And the leaves shed from their trees
Like a feather, perfect weather for the beach
That's where I'll be
Oh I, oh I, oh I
Wait by the ocean
Wait 'till it's frozen
Just wait for me to wait for you
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
Just wait for me to wait for you
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
Just wait for me to wait for you
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
Just wait for me to wait for you
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
'Till the sun explodes
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
'Till the air turns from water to ice
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
Literally 'till the end of time
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
'Till the moment aliens arrive
Oh, oh
Late October, when the fall gets cold
With your scarf and rosy cheeks
Match my leather, perfect weather for the beach
That's where I'll be, babe
Oh I, oh I, oh I
Wait by the ocean
Wait 'till it's frozen
In October, when the fall gets cold
And the leaves shed from their trees
Like a feather, perfect weather for the beach
That's where I'll be
Oh I, oh I, oh I
Wait by the ocean
Wait 'till it's frozen
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you)
