Mermaid Beach

The bells ring in the casinos where I grew up Not even the punters had their luck Reminds me I'm thankful for what I’m not That I should be careful with who I trust That I should be careful with who I love The flags wave on the coast of mermaid beach Why'd all the goods ones have to leave? Reminds me the tourists only stay From the pollution in the break All of the hotels washed away This town will eat me up That's why I’m leaving now Pass my ex-boyfriend's housе I don't tell him anything But I've nevеr been so sad in my life But I've never danced so much The bells ring in the casinos where I grew up I'm watching the family fall apart Reminds me I'm thankful for what I've got That I should be careful with who I love This town will eat me up That’s why I’m leaving now That's my ex-boyfriend’s house I don't tell him anything But I've never been so sad in my life But I've never danced so much I’ve never been so high in my life But I've never cried so much I've never been so sad But I've never danced so much
