Ocean Avenue lyrics
This is a nostalgic song reflecting on a romantic relationship between two teenagers. It looks back on a time of spending days sleeping, staying up all night, and walking on the beach in their bare feet. The lyrics also express a hope to find each other again and go somewhere together that will be better than the place they're in. The song expresses longing, a wish for another chance, and a desire for the waves to crash down and take them away.

There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all nightThere's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all nightIf I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me awayThere's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonightIf I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me awayI remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
Be together for one more night
Somewhere, somehowIf I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
