Meet me after school Over the turnstiles The waves are in your hair The stars are in your eyes Your eyes Your eyes Dissociation takes me for a ride Why's my balance putting up a fight? Every word triangulating round my chest Tie my tongue But make it tight Put the poet's hand to rest Arcades on the beach Give your heart to me And tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it All I know is what you tell me All you know is that I'm listening to you Finding out "what does love mean?" All you know is that I'm listening to you When the sun goes down That's when it all comes out And I fall apart Then it's upside down Oh I know I know it's not fair Then the ride starts That's when my time stops That's when my heart drops That's when I know That's when I know I've had enough of this Arcades on the beach Give your heart to me But tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it Please don't go and tease me Thinking you know who I like You know this, I hope this Won't tangle up our kites And even if I don't know what to say My love, I'm still here And even if you choose to walk away My friend, I'm still here Arcades on the beach Give your heart to me And tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it Arcades on the beach Give your heart to me And tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it Tell me I'm worth it
