Coney Island Days
Charlie got no job anymore
No real life to speak of
He's feelin' like the good times have past him by
Lost in the shadow of his yesterday
He walks the beach and wonders
How it is that things worked out this way?
And still inside him there's a boy
There always is a boy, that always is
These are the Coney Island days
Of passing life away
Time you can't replace
Coney Island days, Coney Island days
Coney Island days, Coney Island days
Talks a lot about what used to be
And the might have been
If only things would have worked out differently
Never dreamed that it would come to this
Back when the stars were shinning
Before he wound up stranded and lost at sea
And still inside him there's a dream
There always is a dream, that always is
These are the Coney Island days
Of passing life away
Time you can't erase
Coney Island days, Coney Island days
Coney Island days, Coney Island days
Childhood scars cut long and deep
And it's hard to break those chains and be free
In the cyclone of a rollercoaster mind
We ride the waves of time and watch it fade
Into the Coney Island days, Coney Island days
Coney Island days
These are the Coney Island days
Of passing life away
Time you can't replace
Coney Island days, Coney Island days
Coney Island days
