White Horses By The Ocean Lyrics

Let me paint you a scene

From a silver screen

It was real

But felt like a daydream

On that infamous night

In 1979

Our lives became the object of a painting

I'd like to say so much more but I can't

Darling, I don't need love I need a friend

All I ever did was lie

Cause I can't stand goodbyes

Now here comes the prologue in paradise

May my songs serve as a sacrifice

Lord forgive me all my sins

I promise to be honest

I'm in love with love

With the idea of

I give second chances

Believe in first glances

All of the above

I'm in love with love

White horses by the ocean with you

And the taste of salt between my lips

I'm falling, it's casual and cruel

I can feel it slipping through my fingertips

Too soon to say goodbye?

I know it's the right time

There's signs up in the sky

But if our fates should realign

I'll never let you go

I'll keep your memory close

For better or for worse

This time it's real, it's not for show

White horses by the ocean with you

And the taste of salt between my lips

I'm falling, it's casual and cruel

I can feel it slipping through my fingertips

What a man man man

What a man man man

What a man man man

What a man man man

My pillar in the night

If they ask then I

Will say what a man

What a man

The killer of my heart

My soul and my art

But they say what a man

What a man

Now I'll write the song of all songs

Have I felt the right kind of love?

Oh I know I was never your girl

But I'd give you my world

(Take me back)

White horses by the ocean with you

And the taste of salt between my lips

I'm falling, it's casual and cruel

I can feel it slipping through my fingertips

You've already slipped through my fingertips
