I gotta make you see You tell me that you're leaving And I'm trying to understand I had myself believing I could take it like a man But if you gotta go, then you gotta know That it's killing me And all the things I never seem to show Girl it's been so

The waves that crashed upon And in my head I heard them play a song For you and me Where they will never find us I was a boat drifting out into sea I had nothing but pieces of thoughts of the hope that you would see me I was a stone’s throw away from

Are we all we are We are the people that you'll never get the best of Not forget the rest of (Rest of) We've had our fill We've had enough We've had it up to here Just sing it loud until the kids will sing it right back

For I would have stood by you Right to the gates of hell Nothing to me You sat and watched As I nearly destroyed myself Never had I felt so betrayed That you would sacrifice my life For no more than your comfort And now your love means nothing

Oh, through! Well, she was standing in the bar I said, "Hello, how do you do?" She handed me a beer with a kangaroo She spoke of places I had never been That she had traveled to And we slow danced along to faster tunes And I made her laugh, I made a pass

Your life serving daughter Be scared of living There's hope in the air There's hope in the water There is a man that I know For seventeen years he never spoke Guess he had nothing to say He opened his mouth on judgment day I listened with all of my might

I'm a winner at a losin' game Have ever had to love someone That just don't feel the same Tryin' to make somebody care for you Is like tryin' to catch the rain And if love is really forever Baby, look here at me Have you ever seen me this way

I could hold you so close and never let you in I learned from the start that all I had was me I am as one, the father and the son Alone among numbers Scream back at the thunder I could feel you in my bones and never really feel a thing You can’t climb

Watchin' that blonde hair swing To every song I'd sing You were California beautiful I was playin' everything but cool I can still hear that sound Of every wave crashin' down Like the tears we cried That day we had to leave It was everything we wanted it

Na na na na I'll always remember you I'm so thankful for the moments so glad I got to know ya The times that we had I'll keep like a photograph And hold you in my heart forever Na na na na na Yesterday's gone we gotta keep moving on I always knew this
