Academy Street Lyrics by Mark Ambor

Like the rain ruins leather
Or like water in the desert
We both knew
We were never right

Now I’m far from who I used to be
But too close to our memories
They still keep me up at night

I swear the good parts stay
And the bad parts hide away

In the quiet or the crowd
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about
When the world gets loud
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about
I miss you

Picking you up on Academy
The street we knew your parents wouldn’t see
We hoped they wouldn’t see

And I swear the butterflies I felt
I’ve never felt for someone else
They’re still here with me

Oh, the good parts stay
And the bad parts hide away

In the quiet or the crowd
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about
When the world gets loud
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about

In the parking lot of Foxwoods
On the grass deep down in Rockwood
Oh, we’re listening to Elton John
All the ways that I’ve held onto
Every single moment
All the promises you’ve broken
And I know I shouldn’t care
But you’re always there

In the quiet or the crowd
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about
When the world gets loud
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about

You’re all that I think about, all that I think about
You’re all that I think about, all that I think about
