The Backyard Of My Life

Watermelon Bay


After the ballroom blitz
We left that place and never looked back
Searching for action and adventure too
We are all born to live
But few of us ever do
Feel the sweet sensation of this beautiful day
Sailing the waves down at watermelon bay

After the gold rush
We abandoned those who held us down
We were Looking for answers and the truth too
We are all born to live
Do what you want to do
Lets get lost get washed away
Riding the rays of this Magnificent day
Watching the boats down at watermelon bay

She can take the breath away from heaven
She loves to lazy around on a Sunday
Likes to do things her own way
Dancing in the blue bells
The clouds were daisy chains

After the eclipse
We kissed in the twilight
Dreaming of that feeling hoping for the thrill
Were all born to live
But few of us ever will
Look through the telescope see stars sway
She makes me come alive
When she walks that way

After the Armageddon
We ran into the setting sun
Wishing for a day dream watching the wheel
We are all born to live
We are all born to feel
Far away in the future a blinding light
The perfect ending to the perfect night
I am alive when you walk that way
Holding hands down at watermelon bay
Down at watermelon bay
Down at watermelon bay
Down at watermelon bay
