(Verse 1)
Underneath the neon lights, on Brighton Beach we met,
A summer breeze, a stolen glance, a love I won't forget.
The waves, they danced in rhythm to the beating of our hearts,
In that moment, I found a love that tore my world apart.
(Pre-Chorus)
But seasons change, and so did we,
From endless love to bittersweet decree.
As the sun sets on the sand we used to roam,
I'm haunted by the memories of a love that found its home.
(Chorus)
Oh, Brighton Beach, where love took hold,
In your embrace, my heart was sold.
Yet time and tides were not our friend,
Now I'm left with the echoes of a love that had to end.
(Verse 2)
We walked along the shoreline, hand in hand, so free,
Our laughter harmonizing with the rhythm of the sea.
But as the days grew shorter, so did your distant gaze,
I saw the impending storm, the impending end of days.
(Pre-Chorus)
Promises made in the salt-kissed air,
Now carried away like a whispered prayer.
As the waves crash, tears mix with the foam,
I'm left with a heartache that reminds me I'm alone.
(Chorus)
Oh, Brighton Beach, where love took hold,
In your embrace, my heart was sold.
Yet time and tides were not our friend,
Now I'm left with the echoes of a love that had to end.
(Bridge)
The seagulls cry a mournful tune,
As I watch the fading crescent moon.
Our footprints washed away by the tide,
Just like the love that couldn't reside.
(Verse 3)
Now I'm standing on these shores, where memories still remain,
The laughter and the tears, the joy and the pain.
The sun may rise again, but you won't be by my side,
In the beauty of this place, my heartache I can't hide.
(Pre-Chorus)
Though we've drifted like ships lost at sea,
Your memory lingers, a ghost haunting me.
As the stars emerge and the night sky's dome,
I'm left with the ache of a love that couldn't find its home.
(Chorus)
Oh, Brighton Beach, where love took hold,
In your embrace, my heart was sold.
Yet time and tides were not our friend,
Now I'm left with the echoes of a love that had to end.
(Outro)
Farewell to the love we once knew,
In Brighton Beach, where skies were blue.
The waves still crash, a never-ending moan,
As I find the strength to face a life now on my own.
