"Dive For Your Memory" lyrics - THE GO-BETWEENS

If the cliffs were any closer,
If the water wasn't so bad.
I'd dive for your memory
On the rocks and the sand.

I'd dive for you
Like a bird I'd descend
Deep down I'm lonely
And I miss my friend.

So when I hear you saying,
That we stood no chance,
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance.

We stood side by side,
Strong and true.
Just wish you'd remember,
Bad times don't get you through.

So when I hear you saying,
That we stood no chance,
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance.

Now, I dive black waters
The waters of her dream.
Are black and forgetful
I'd like to make them clean.

So when I hear you saying,
That we stood no chance,
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance.

So when I hear you saying,
That we stood no chance,
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance.
