Lyrics Declan McKenna – The Seaside
Text:
If I should die before I wake
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you
If I should go far away
It’s you, ooh
If I should cry
Then wake me up and take my tears away as they softly fall
Beside the seaside
I watch, look up at my life, then I swiftly forget it all
I don’t need magic anymore
So please leave me alone, Professor McGonagall
Please will you be patient ’cause the outcome is amazing
If you wait till you’ve got it all
Ooh, ooh
If I should die before I wake
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you
If I should go far away
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you
If I should lie
Then wake me up and tell me that my life isn’t over yet
What’s with this beside
And I don’t know where I’m going and I think that I want the less
Oh so you want to be a wonderman
Well you’ve gotta try hard to reason
‘Cause it’s all you’ve learned about
And you’ve gotta be watchful
If I should die before I wake
It’s you
If I should go far away
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you, you, ooh, ooh
If I should die before I wake
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you
If I should go far away
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you
If I should die before I wake
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you
If I should go far away
Would you take my final wish and make it come true
It’s you, you, ooh, ooh
If I should cry
Then wake me up and take my tears away as they softly fall
Beside the seaside
I watch, look up at my life, then I swiftly forget it all
I don’t need magic anymore
So please leave me alone, Professor McGonagall
Please will you be patient ’cause the outcome is amazing
If you wait till you’ve got it all
Ooh, ooh
