"tell me you love me"
she said.

"i love you"
i did.

it was there
on that beach that i knew
we'd never
make it out alive.

"we can't stay here"
almost pleading.

"just a little longer"
just a bit.

the gulls came
to check on
your well-being.

the fish sang
sad songs
(D#m)

you decided to leave.

i think part of me
stayed on that
beach.
