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 what's 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
