Lyrics
Shoreline Heartache
(Anthony Marques) 28may19v1
1. As I walk along the shore
Salt spray washes over me.
Whitecaps on the ocean soar,
Riding waves from summer breezes.
2. Longing for her open arms.
Sunlight glancing off the sand
Blinds me, and like a mirage,
I see her and we're hand in hand.
Chorus. Now the smell of ocean mist
Still stirs my shoreline heartache.
Here's where we had our first kiss,
And where the last one made my heart break.
3. As I watch these crests of foam
Tossing on the open sea,
So my thoughts will always roam
Thinking of all she meant to me.
4. A lifeguard chair left on the beach
Reminds me just how great thing were.
We'd walk the boardwalk in the heat,
Make promises to one another.
Chorus
5. Whitecaps seem to disappear
As the evening wind dies down.
So the dreams that I held dear
They have all vanished now.
