Favorite Quote:
That at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie." - Paulo Coelho


[Verse 1]
I see you laid out on the beach from my balcony
Your hand raised to grasp that Martini
You know that you’re everything to me
You know that you’re the song I live and breathe
You’re dancing into the blue, someone’s with you
I wish I knew what to do
I want to be screaming your name
I want you to love me again

 

[Pre-chorus]

Whispers off the oceanic winds
Find themselves to my room
They shutter in my ear
I’m cold, and I am lost without you

 

[Chorus]

It’s a sunny day in the sunshine state
Yet I’m feeling cold
I see flip flops and swim trucks surround me
Though, beside me all I want is your pair of feet
Your ten toes, two elbows
Intertwined
No longer feeling hollow
As I walk the shore, your hand in mine

 

[Verse 2]

Dreams can still come true
Like my longing for me and you
I know that your girl kisses you right
But I’m the one you’re dreaming of at night
I wanted to think higher of you
I wanted to say you were right
Now I see, that it’s lie after lie
Your throat, it closing up tight

 

[Pre-chorus]

Whispers off the oceanic winds
Find themselves to my room
They shutter in my ear
I’m cold, and I am lost without you

 

[Chorus]

It’s a sunny day in the sunshine state
Yet I’m feeling cold
I see flip flops and swim trucks surround me
Though, beside me all I want is your pair of feet
Your ten toes, two elbows
Intertwined
No longer feeling hollow
As I walk the shore, your hand in mine

 

[Bridge]
Oh, how shallow, these waters in which I tread
The words that he had spoken aloud
Fear me now, for I am turning ice cold
A slave forever destined to never be sold
Purgatory is this,
The space between the words you thought and your lips
He’ll never understand
The simple fact that you’re his

 

[Pre-chorus - Altered]
And the whispers of doubt
Surround me now
They shutter in my ear
We’ll always be right here, they tell me

 

[Chorus – Altered]
It’s a sunny day in the sunshine state
And I’m over it all
I see smiles and laughter around me
Though, beside me I want is too just hear the beating of your heart
My life song, your rhythm
Intertwined
feeling alone
I dance on the shore, while my future is set in stone

 

[Ending - Repeat until fade out]

Destined to be alone,
Forever without a home,
Destined to be on my own,
Forever signing your song
