[Verse 1]
Some kind of poetry in motion
Finds me here beside the ocean
In a room with a view

[Verse 2]
I put my feet upon the sand
Begin again where I began
Yeah that's just what I will do

[Refrain]
Back on 27th avenue

[Verse 3]
Too many sins are left unspoken
Too many hearts that I have broken
Yeah including my heart too

[Verse 4]
O holy water wash me clean
Of all I've done and all I've seen
I could use a blessing or two

[Refrain]
Back on 27th avenue
[Chorus]
Where I learned to fly
And I learned to cry
Pained watercolour blue
Where I need to be
To remember me
The oldest place to start anew
Back on 27th avenue

[Verse 5]
Some kind of cosmic intervention
Finds me here with the intention
Finding out just who is who

[Verse 6]
So many wishes I made here
Between the jetty and the pier
Yeah some of them came true

[Refrain]
On 27th avenue

[Chorus]
Where I learned to fly
And I learned to cry
Painted watercolour blue
Where I need to be
To remember me
The oldest place to start anew
Back on 27th avenue
[Bridge]
A divine reincarnation
A rendez-vous to be renewed
A destiny destination
From my room with the deja-view

[Bridge]
Back on 27th avenue
I'm back on 27th avenue
Where I made some noise
Where I raised my voice
I wonder what has begun
On 90291
Where I learned to play
Where I learned to pray
Just like a time machine
All because of the queen
Hour after hour
Just left of the lifeguard tower
Where I gave a ring
Where Marky asked me to sing
I'm gonna think it through
Where the Blue Angels flew
I'm gonna make amends
I'm gonna make some friends
I'm gonna mend my wounds
I'm gonna write some tunes
[Outro]
Back on 27th avenue
Back on 27th avenue
Back on 27th avenue
Back on 27th avenue
