I stand, all slanted now,
A statue on one leg,
Your initials,
Dark and red, 
Scratched into the boardwalk,
In ballpoint pen!

Any other night,
But not this one. 
Any other night,
I'd wish the world would end.

On any other night,
I'd wish the world would end,
But much to my suprise,
I'm swept away again.

I stand, in the splinters,
A stranger in my own skin,
You tried your best,
To knock me down,
But someone came along,
and built me up again!

Any other night,
But not this one!
Any other night,
I'd wish the world would end!

On any other night,
I'd wish the world would end,
But much to my suprise,
I'm swept away again,

La da da, da dum da dah, da dah!
