I want to hold your hand, but I can only hold my breath   And pray to god that you’ll be listening to this song..   I sat myself down by the boardwalk    To listen to the waves   I swear to god I heard you calling out my name   From underneath these street lights where we’d dance for hours   Under thunderstorms and rain   It was funny how you always cried when we’re together    So hold me tight my darling   Let the sweet sound of ocean waves cast away your pain   Lay your head on my chest and talk about the weather..      If memory serves me right I swear to God   These were the best nights of our lives..      If memory serves me right I swear to God   These were the best nights of our lives..
