walking alone beneath the
lights of that miracle mile
me and mary making our
way into the night
you can hear the cries
from the carnival rides
the pinball bills skee ball slides
watching the summer
sun fall out of sight
there's a warm wind coming
in from off of the ocean
making it's way past the hotel
wall to fill the streets
mary is holding both of
her shoes in her hands
said she likes to feel
the sand beneath her feet
and in the morning i'm leaving
making my way back to cleveland
so tonight i hope that
i will do just fine
and i don't see how you could
ever be anything but mine
there's a local band playing
at the sea side pavilion
and i got just enough cash to get us in
and as we are dancing mary's
wrapping her arms around me
and i can feel the sting
of summer on my skin
in the midst of the music
i tell her i love her
we both laugh cause
we know it isn't true
but mary there's a summer
drawing to an end tonight
and there's so much that
i long to do to you
and in the morning i'm leaving
making my way back to cleveland
so tonight i hope that
i will do just fine
and i don't see how you could
ever be anything but mine
and in the morning i'm leaving
making my way back to cleveland
so tonight i hope that
i will do just fine
and i don't see how you could
ever be anything but mine
mary i don't see how you could
ever be anything but mine
and in the morning i'm leaving
making my way back to cleveland
so tonight i hope that
i will do just fine
hey i don't see how you could
ever be anything but mine
