[Verse]
   F#mIt's funny how i Dfell into your arms
   AThinking if i Enever left Toronto
   F#mI wouldn't be this Dhigh
Just a voice in disguisAe
You changed my liEfe
[Pre-Chorus]
Driving through F#mLA to pass time
Palm Dtrees on the edge of my eyes right now
Hit AVenice at the right time
If i Edidn't meet you i'd die
   F#mYou and DI we're meant to be
Our Alove outlasts history
Our Ebond is strong
[Chorus 1]
I bet you never F#mknew
We met on Ocean AveDnue
Right down in Santa MoniAca
It's where our souls first tEouched
Felt like a thousand marching F#mbands
[Kardinal Offishal Verse]
When I saw your face for the first time
DWhen I was without you them were the worst times
AThat's what I found when I got to know you
EDem gyal nuh like you dem wi haffe (a)llow you
  F#mI seem distant at times lemme show you
DThat it's a defence mechanism that I go through
 AOnly the most high I put before you
EI just waan fi love you not control you
F#mYou and I were Dmade for each other from the start
Take off the Asafety aim at the heart
InseEcurity may take us apart and I'm
UnsF#mure that there is even a cure for this pure fDeeling
I be in the clubs it ain't appealing
AYou are the real and there's something that I think I oughta Etell you
[Chorus 1 & 2]
I bet you never F#mknew
We met on Ocean AveDnue
Right down in Santa MoniAca
It's where our souls first tEouched
Felt like a thousand marching F#mbands
Played through the bedding of the Dsand
Right down in Santa MoniAca
It's where our souls first tEouched
[Bridge]
AYou and I we Eshout out loud
"This is the F#mbest day"
Into the best night
To the Dbest time we ever had
It Aall just came to my head
When you Elaughed at me and said
"This is the F#mbest day"
Into the best night
To the Dbest time we ever had
[Chorus 1 & 2]
I bet you never F#mknew
We met on Ocean AveDnue
Right down in Santa MoniAca
It's where our souls first tEouched
Felt like a thousand marching F#mbands
Played through the bedding of the Dsand
Right down in Santa MoniAca
It's where our souls first tEouched
