1953
I found you in the summer heat Of 1953 Wise words from your father said 'I know that boy's your brother's friend But I don't think he keeps comin round for him.' Again and again and again I had to swim away Semper fi but I'll be back someday I'll take you by the hand and say Be mine, be mine, be mine
And if someday You grow tired and your memory fades It's alright I will never leave your side And oh when it's time You can come find me In 1953
Leave New York and see the countryside Little city and a bigger life Watch it grow into a thousand eyes It's ours, it's ours, it's ours Oh it's ours, it's ours, it's ours
And if someday You grow tired and your memory fades It's alright I will never leave your side And oh when it's time You can come find me In 1953 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
('You were my brother's friend. Years later my father said, 'You know? I think he was coming to see you.'')
It's written in the gold ring
('It could be true. 'It is true!)
Passed down the line Hanging in the branches
('We landed on the right path; I really feel.')
You see it in their eyes Pressed in the concrete
('It was a good life. We're all very happy.')
Where we used to reside It's larger than life
And if someday You grow tired and your memory fades It's okay And when my heart gives away It's alright I will never leave your side And oh when it's time Just come find me In 1953
