Island Ave

There was a time
When we held each other’s hands
There was a man
Who held me in his glance
Who was the king of Island Avenue

That night in my bed
Head upon my chest
Laid me down to rest
No one in sight
To watch his kingdom’s plight
To see it all come falling off the ledge

Mad from the wine
We shook our fists up high
Said we had the right to live our lives
Down came the rain
To wash it all anew
To end our reign on Island Avenue
