The Ocean Town

Let's take a walk through an ocean town.

Let's smell the breeze and listen to the gulls call

So that when we're apart we can remember ourselves here

Remember the time we had before the fall.

Let's take a walk through an ocean town.

As the smell of fish and chips flavour the air

Maybe one day we'll return and feast on them again

If we can find courage to mend the tear.

Let's take a walk through an ocean town.

We could go crab-hunting amongst the rocks

Using our size and scaring the little critters

Until the monsters landed on the docks.

Let's take a walk through an ocean town.

Death is cruel and cowardly, and so was I

I wish I could have done more

When your turn came to die.

Let's take a walk through an ocean town.

Alone now, through these streets I roam

Smashed buildings become new, seagulls and crabs return

But your tombstone is my home.

Let's take a walk through ocean town.

Let your ghost hold my bloodstained hand

Please forgive me for not loving you enough

Until God my soul demands.

Let's take a walk through my ocean town.
