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
