Beth Goldwater the letter

Select language to translate this lyric


he wrote down a list of all the places he would kiss her, running up her legs, inside her wrist and down her neck, standing on the front porch, under the stars, inside the tree fort, hiding at the movies, in elevators and jacuzzis
he put it in a letter and hoped to god that when she read it, she would go to him, fingers splayed, arms wide open...
she'd go over, over and over the water
over and over to meet him on his island in the sun
she'd go over, over and over the water
over and over to meet him and tell him that he's the only one, the only one
well she read that letter, grabbed her bag a hat and sweater, thought of all she'd say, all she'd give to him one day cuz she'd waited so to hear his words for her to go meet him on the sand to start to life off hand in hand. so she booked her trip and put herself right on a ship to sail the ocean blue, said, i can't wait to get to you...
she went over, over and over the water
over and over to meet him on his island in the sun
she went over, over and over the water
over and over to meet him, and tell him that he's the only one, the only one
waves crash, lightning flash
storm broke across that sea
waves crash, lightning flash
storm broke across that sea
waves crash, lightning flash
he'll never know how close she came
waves crash, lightning flash
he'll never know how she screamed his name
she cried over, over and over i love you
over and over i'll meet you on your island in the sun
she cried over, over and over i love you
over and over i need you, you're the only one,
the only one...
