Boardwalk Baby Blue

BOARDWALK BABY BLUE

I walk along with you down by the Bay
The people look at us, and then they turn away
Something about the way we are so easy with each other
We never had to say it, won't you please be my lover?
Things just happened naturally in our hideaway beside the Sea
You tend your garden carefully, you are more than what I see
I can't tell you what you mean to me
I'm so in love with you, my Boardwalk Baby Blue

My heart sings a sweet melody every time I think of You
The melody and harmony, the taste of morning dew
The way you move your body in the early morning light
Like an ocean in a bottle or the shadows in the night
There's a place under the Boardwalk
Where I carved a broken heart lonely, silent as a rock
My soul was on the widow’s walk, my mind was lost somewhere
And all that I was made of seemed to vanish in the air

A siren sang from up above, radiating only love
Life is just a fantasy, a story about you and me
It all depends on what you see, what you hear and what you feel
You can take my hand and we will stand in what is real
I came to the Boardwalk strutting my stuff like the Cock of the Walk
I left humbled and confused, feeling like I was being used
That’s when I ran into you, and just send all my dreams came true
I am so in love with you, my Boardwalk Baby Blue

Another favorite fairy tale tells of Jonah and the Whale
Another trip deep down inside, sit right back, enjoy the ride
So different when we both came out on the shores of paradise
Never knowing Love can be a long roll of the dice
The answer to the riddle comes in shades of fire and ice
And somewhere in the middle, I asked you to be my wife
I saw the way you looked at me, a tear was in your eye
You said the reason you came here was just to say goodbye

My feet of clay were on the ground, my eyes were on the sky
Too late to cry, too soon to die, and I still don't know why
I will stand beside you until the end of time
It doesn't matter how we are, you're still a friend of mine
Safe behind the garden wall, as the summer turns to fall
The Rose’s bloom just falls away, like it wasn't there at all
But if you will come back to me, I promise to be true
Because I'm still in love with you, my Boardwalk Baby Blue
