"On The Beach" lyrics
"On The Beach"
Doll babe, I'm so alone tonight
Ain't certain if I'm wrong or right
Ain't certain if it's all worthwhile
Lord babe, if I could see your smile
I'm standing on the shoreline looking at the raging sea
Well, it's ugly, dark and cold and I'm feeling like it's inside of me
Thinking that by now I'm old enough to act my age
Yes, and caught up in it all I'm working trying to turn that page
Doll babe, I know you won't come here
You're way beyond this atmosphere
I'm struggling where you used to be
Lord, baby, how d'you get so free?
You've got my respect and I'm jealous too but that's alright
What I'm trying to say, it sure would do me good
If I could hold you tight tonight
I can't put you down but other people talk that mess
Well, I hope you're happy now, babe, happy with your sweet success
Doll babe, it's getting way too real
I miss the way I used to feel
Can't ever live that past again
Wish I knew now what I knew then
And walking in the sand, I look to see the tracks I've made
And the tide is rushing in and I'm watching while my footprints fade
It's been a lonesome time since you were back here in my arms
And yes, I wonder now who's melting in your doll baby charms
Doll babe, I'm so alone tonight
Ain't certain if I'm wrong or right
Ain't certain if it's all worthwhile
Lord, babe, if I could see your smile

Oh baby

Nobody sounds like they're telling the truth
Oh, when they're talking about it
I don't want to talk about it
