Girl Who Washed Ashore

The girl sleeps on the island

Her hair is long and brown

Hiding from the winter

Dreaming of another town

You didn't end up in the city like all the years before

Now you're just another girl who washed ashore

Showing off your diamond

Blazing in the car

Dreaming of the summer

But summer's just too far

You didn't end up in the city like all the years before

Now you're just another girl who washed ashore

You broke up with your boyfriend

He threw out all you had

You're trying not to call him

But you get drunk and sad

You could have loved him if you wanted but you wanted more

And we all want what's best for the girl who washed ashore

You're going out to California, got a ticket in the drawer

We never thought we say goodbye to the girl who washed ashore

You didn't end up in the city like all the years before

Now you're just another girl who washed ashore

You're going out to California, got a ticket in the drawer

We never thought we say goodbye to the girl who washed ashore

We never thought we say goodbye to the girl who washed ashore

We never thought we say goodbye to the girl who washed ashore
