I want a big house that sits by the shore And when I wake up I can watch the tide rise All of my friends they would live next door And every night we'd build a fire in the backyard We'd listen to all our favorite songs Watch it burn and we sing along On and on and on oh oh oh On and on and on Woke up this morning it was bitter cold Pieced together where the car was parked Now I'm running late to work I took the back road behind the prison yard This year is slinking by so slow This town has watched me come and go On and on and on oh oh oh On and on and on Do you believe that you're in control? Of the things that you say you want? Laying awake watching tv shows
And get the feeling that we are the products Of generations out searching for gold They did their best just to stay afloat On and on and on oh oh oh On and on and on The waves crash on and on and on oh oh oh On and on and on When you feel the water pull you down You're caught up in the gravity Don't let it take you out to drown Just hold your head above this Can we go back to the place Where we were standing at the top When we were living everyday Like it's the last one that we've got Yeah we'll go back to the days That went on and on and on And we'll get back to the place Where waves crashed on and on and on On and on and on oh oh oh
