Phosphorescent - The Mermaid Parade lyrics

In New York this morning, it was 8am LA time And I could be there by this evening Said the girl on the airline line So I bought that ticket, and I got in that cab But I didn't make it babe To the airport like that No I wound up walkin Out by the ocean today And there were naked women Dancing in the Mermaid Parade And O Amanda did you see me today Watchin those women dancing In the Mermaid Parade And O Amanda were you with me today Watchin those women waltz by In the Mermaid Parade Now our hearts were on fire Only two weeks ago And our bodies were like live wires Down on the beach in Mexico But I came back to this city And you stayed home in LA And then our two years of marriage In two short weeks somehow just slipped away And I know all about your new man Your new older, old man And I heard that he's married O you be careful Amanda And yeah I got a new friend too And yeah she's pretty and she's small But god damn it Amanda Ah god damn it all I went out walkin Out by the ocean today And there were naked women dancing Dancing in the Mermaid Parade And O Amanda did you see me today Watchin those women dancing In the Mermaid Parade And O Amanda were you with me today Watching those women waltz by In the Mermaid Parade And O Amanda were you with me today, no Watching those women waltz by In the Mermaid Parade
