Mayday Parade – Amber Lynn Lyrics

She said, “boy, you better say you’re sorry”
Don’t think forgiveness will come easy
‘Cause it’s all that I have to give
And boy, I get the strangest pleasure
Just sitting on these silly roof-tops
And see the lights that go on for miles

And I’m dreaming all the time
My heart is racing, yeah
I’m dreaming all the time
Won’t you be mine?

Amber Lynn, I’ve got three days to keep away
I’ve been waiting on that white horse, oh for all these days
Amber Lynn, you’ve got me all wrong
Sweet love of mine, bring me closer to that Florida line
Amber Lynn won’t you be mine
And take me away, tonight

I am stuck between the lines
It just won’t come out right
Till I find mine, Till I find mine
Amber Lynn, I won’t forget
The simple things you know, you know me best
But I can’t seem to find a way in you

Now I’m dreaming all the time
My heart is racing, yeah
I’m dreaming all the time
Won’t you be mine?

Amber Lynn, I’ve got three days to keep away
I’ve been waiting on that white horse, oh for all these days
Amber Lynn, you’ve got me all wrong
Sweet love of mine, bring me closer to that Florida line
Amber Lynn won’t you be mine
And take me away

Amber Lynn, you’ve got me wishing for the stars tonight
And I’ve been messed up, but oh, you got your trust in time
You saved my life, and I don’t ever think I’ll find the words to say
Amber Lynn, I’ve got three days to keep away

Amber Lynn, I’ve got three days to keep away
I’ve been waiting on that white horse, oh for all those days
Amber Lynn, you’ve got me all wrong
Sweet love of mine, bring me closer to that Florida line
Amber Lynn won’t you be mine
And take me away, tonight
Take me away, tonight
Take me away, tonight
Take me away, tonight
Take me away, tonight

Mayday Parade – Terrible Things Lyrics

By the time I was your age, I’d give anything
To fall in love truly, was all I could think
That’s when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman, that I’d ever seen

She said, “Boy can I tell you, a wonderful thing?”
“I can’t help but notice, you’re staring at me”
“I know I shouldn’t say this, but I really believe”
“I can tell by your eyes, that you’re in love with me”

Now son, I’m only telling you this…
Because life, can do terrible things

Now most of the time, we’d had too much to drink
And we’d laugh at the stars and we’d share everything
Too young to notice, and too dumb to care
Love was a story, that couldn’t compare

I said, “Girl can I tell you, a wonderful thing?”
“I made you a present, with paper and string”
“Open with care now, I’m asking you please”
“You know that I love you, will you marry me?”

Now son, I’m only telling you this…
Because life, can do terrible things
You’ll learn, one day, I’ll hope and I’ll pray
That God, shows you differently


She said, “Boy can I tell you, a terrible thing?”
“It seems that I’m sick and I’ve only got weeks”
“You were the greatest, thing that ever happened to me”

Slow, so slow
I fell to the ground, on my knees

So don’t fall in love, there’s just too much to risk
If given the choice, then I’m begging you’ll choose
To walk away, walk away, don’t let her get you
I can’t bear to see the same happen to you

Now son, I’m only telling you this…
…Because life, can do terrible things
