Walking alone beneath the lights of that miracle mile, Me and Mary making our way into the night, You can hear the cries from the carnival rides, The pinball bills, skee ball slides, Watching the summer sun fall out of sight, There's a warm wind coming in from off of the ocean Making its way past the hotel wall to fill the streets Mary is holding both of her shoes in her hands Said she likes to feel the sand beneath her feet And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope that I will do just fine And I don't see how you could ever be anything but mine There's a local band playing at the sea side pavilion And I got just enough cash to get us in And as we are dancing Mary's wrapping her arms around me And I can feel the sting of summer on my skin In the midst of the music I tell her I love her, We both laugh cause we know it isn't true But Mary there's a summer drawing to an end tonight And there's so much that I long to do to you And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope that I will do just fine And I don't see how you could ever be anything but mine Ooooooooo.. And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope that I will do just fine And I don't see how you could ever be anything but mine Mary I don't see how you could ever be anything but mine Ooooooooooo...ooooooooooooooo... ...And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope that I will do just fine Hey, I don't see how you could ever be anything but mine
