[00:00.00]Tragic Surf (4-Track Demo) - The Motels
[00:20.83]I'd never seen such a night
[00:24.39]The air was still
[00:26.13]The moon was bright
[00:33.00]The shore glistened
[00:34.84]As Johnny and I listened
[00:36.90]To the waves as they crashed on the rocks
[00:43.12]Who would have thought
[00:45.61]Who would have known
[00:47.89]That night I'd leave
[00:51.09]The beach alone
[01:15.83]He talked of that wave
[01:18.45]As though it were alive
[01:20.83]It was him against it
[01:23.42]Only one would survive
[01:26.26]I sat on the shore
[01:29.34]Johnny grabbed his board
[01:31.49]My senses were numbed
[01:34.05]By the ocean's deadly roar
[01:37.50]I held my breath
[01:38.99]As she started too swell
[01:42.59]That demon wave
[01:45.27]Straight from hell
[02:10.88]Oh what a sight
[02:12.97]What a sweet ride that night
[02:16.51]As he sailed across her crest
[02:21.10]Silhouette in the moonlight
[02:23.33]He stood strong and tall
[02:25.90]For a second forever
[02:29.42]He had it all
[02:31.49]Then she crashed down
[02:33.36]I saw his board split in half
[02:36.84]Johnny disappeared from sight
[02:39.09]But I can still hear his laugh
[02:43.62]Haha
