Take a walk down memory lane with me Past a watermelon stand on the way Thinking I had everything we'd need On Martha's Foolish Ginger You were late How could I forget what you said- The part about that "Love taking over your life" Was not your plan
If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland Who knows what I would have done If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland Who knows what I would have done
Through the cliffs Out of the Bay I went From the starboard side I could black my visions and my passions- They keep me awake
If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland Who knows what I would have done If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland Who knows what I would have done
A familiar voice "Hi. Surprise. I've been searching trying to find you" I couldn't speak My hands reached for Martha's Foolish Ginger We talked until the moon came up About how life without love Isn't worth very much Then I played this song
If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland Who knows what I would have done If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland Who knows what I would have done What I would have done What I would have done
"Memories that we have yet" you said "To make like our Burning Bed..." Love, don't mistake that it wasn't safe On Martha's Foolish Ginger.
