By the town where you said you'd still love me

By an ocean just seven miles wide

We could walk across that bridge

Watch the water flow under

Leave all our troubles behind

Well maybe you don't quite remember

Lying there on your living room floor

With your parents over head we went to sneak up into your bed

In the mornings I'd be sneaking out your door

I'd do anything at all to make you happy

Anything at all to see you smile

Well lord knows I tried

But didn't always do right

Take back every tear I made you cry

By the town where you said you'd still love me

By an ocean just seven miles wide

We could walk across that bridge

Watch the water flow under

Leave all our troubles behind

Ah yeah

Five years ago I was much older

Time comes and takes it all away

To have and to hold to death do us part

Leaves me with a thousand things to say

I said sometimes I don't quite remember

What I did to make you leave

With the moon up over head

I lie awake alone in my bed

Without you it's so hard to be me

By the town where you said you'd still love me

By an ocean just seven miles wide

We could walk across that bridge

Watch the water flow under

Leave all our troubles behind

By the town where you said you'd still love me

By an ocean just seven miles wide

We could walk across that bridge

Watch the water flow under

Leave all our troubles behind
