Open season on a broken heart

This is the year they take the summer apart

There is a magic to the carnival arts

My love, my love, are you on a winter beach tonight

Follow the noise, no one but me and the neighbourhood boys

Am F C F Am

Will remember where we were when this went down

[Verse]

The ocean calls us like we’ve never been

One hundred games that we will never win

C F C Am

Close your eyes and hear the teacups spin

C F C Am

As it begins to snow

[Verse]

The mermaids watch us steal a souvenir
