August in Bethany

With the sound of the ocean crashing
7:30
Friday evening
Everything comes tumbling down

I choke back each tear that bleeds
I'd rather rest forever in your arms
I'd rather stay here than go
But I know that I should leave
As I sit here helpless

Don't go, you said you wouldn't
You said you wouldn't
Don't go, you said you wouldn't
You said you couldn't

Don't go, you said you wouldn't
You said you wouldn't
Don't go, you said you wouldn't
You said you couldn't

I think of our time together
Is it faded
Or am I dreaming?
Everything you said is wrong

I cherish our memories
I want to kiss your tears away tonight
It's hard to give up the one
You never thought you'd leave

Don't go, don't go
Your eyes, they see through my soul
Don't go, don't go
You say as I walk out your door

With the sound of the ocean crashing
7:30
Friday evening
Everything comes tumbling down
