Voodoo Blue - 31st Street lyrics

Down 31st street 4 years done The graduation celebrated With reckless fun Nights filled with parties, girls, And the freedom we'd been longing for 3 stuck together Discussing life and whats in store Not knowing this would be the final goodbye We'll have the boardwalk forever But tonight The pinnacle of our devotion Is taken under by the ocean Oh All the photographs can't capture The bitter-sweetness of knowing I'll never see your faces again Nostalgia hits sometimes just like a punch in the face And when it does I wonder Did I make the right mistakes? Not knowing this would be the final goodbye We'll have the boardwalk forever But tonight The pinnacle of our devotion Is taken under by the ocean And if you don't know by now I'm the one who gets away Where are we now? Too far apart from each other How could 1 week be the end But the start of another? X'd out chapter of our lives? Time is like poison never tasted 'til you die At first you don't feel it It starts to kick in Not knowing this would be the final goodbye We'll have the boardwalk forever But tonight The pinnacle of our devotion Is taken under by the ocean And if you don't know by now (And if you don't know by now) And if you don't know by now I'm the one who got away These are the words I would write in the letter I'll never send
