And thereand's three, count and'em three
children playing on the beach
they were eager to learn,
to be taught and to teach
Thereand's veronica
sheand's biting her lip
as she watches the waves
turn white at the tip
and thereand's vada
radiating with joy
and luckily she still
canand't stand the sight of a boy
and lastly thereand's dade
his hair dances in the wind
and heand's wondering what love is
and why it has to end
And he canand't understand
how everyone goes on breathing
when true love ends
his mother whispers quietly...
heavenand's not a place that you go when you die
itand's that moment in life
when you actually feel alive
so live for the moment
and take this advice, live by every word
love is just a hoax so
forget anything that you have heard
and live for the moment now
And thereand's three, count and'em three
children growing on the beach
they were eager to learn,
to be taught and to teach
Thereand's veronica
sheand's licking her lips
as she waits for her real,
first passionate kiss
and thereand's vada
canand't admit her jealousy
of her sister veronica,
and how sheand's so pretty
(and how sheand's so pretty)
lastly thereand's dade
still sitting on the dock
ponders his life, and he skips his rocks
and he wonders when his father will return
but heand's not coming back
And he canand't understand
how everyone goes on breathing
when true love ends
his mother whispers quietly...
heavenand's not a place that you go when you die
itand's that moment in life
when you actually feel alive
so live for the moment
and take this advice, live by every word
love is just a hoax
ao forget everything that you have heard
(forget everything)
And thereand's three, count and'em three
shildren missing from the beach
they were eager to learn,
to be taught and to teach
But the sad thing
is that they never lived passed
the age of fifteen
due to neglect from their mother
who was bed ridden
by her ex-lover, their father
she didnand't even notice,
or pay much attention
as the tide came in and swept
her three into the ocean
now all her advice, it seems useless
No, heavenand's not a place
that you go when you die
itand's that moment in life
when you touch her and you feel alive
so live for the moment
and take this advice,
live by every word
loveand's completely real,
so forget anything that youand've heard
and live for the moment now
