lyrics

High tide, honey. Moonlight:
the only separation in the shades of black and white.
Salt air on a street fair,
country on your T-shirt, and ocean in your hair.

Was I there, holding you all along the promenade?
I recall I loved you once, when love was never made,
dancing with the ghost of the arcade.

Streetlight on a stop sign.
If I could only kiss you, I’d be fine to die.
Do you like him? Are you just friends?
Am I overstepping? Where do I begin?

Was it him, holding you all along the promenade?
I recall I loved you once, when love was never made,
dancing with the ghost of the arcade.

Memory, you’ll always be a rose I never knew.
(Is a memory a lie that I can see?)
All I’ve seen are thorns and leaves where I thought roses grew.
(Is a memory a lie that I can see?)
Show me red, where blood should be, it’s roses I still see.
(Is a memory a lie that I can see?)

Was it me, holding you all along the promenade?
I recall I loved you once, when love was never made,
dancing with the ghost…

I recall I loved you once, when love was never made,
dancing with the ghost of the arcade.
