D'you remember
Sailing over Coney Island
Fine winter nights
Sleeping indoors
We dreamt of
Sleepless nights
And cold-coated
Dining wives

Chorus
I've been called morbid, pale
Lonely and frail
I'd like it, old culler's wife
If you'd refrain from spreading tales

Its stupidity
Believing in fairy tales
I never meant to hurt you
Laughing, side-splitting idioms
I can't see the facts
I never really did try
Could you move closer still?
I need to just see in you

Chorus
Bridge
Maverick
You little rebel you
Cold water shower
Don’t know why you'd ever choose…

Chorus

If you can&#039;t do it, try again. The only way you&#039;ll be able to accomplish anything is if you believe you can... so what&#039;s impossible? Nothing is impossible.
