"CONEY ISLAND RIDES" Words and Music by MARTIN HUQ Sitting around the kitchen table, Thinking about a time when we were young and able Remembering all the good girls that we once knew Hopped in my old Studebaker Out past the green fields where I would make her My one and only true love Sometimes I think of you in the night Sometimes I dream of you in the night CHORUS Well, I was thinking about you all of my life From the moment that I met you I was hoping to make you my wife Now 25 years have come and gone and we sit on our front porch And the summer sun sets, over the western sky And I look over to you look you in the eye And I thank God, I thank God that we’re still alive VERSE Took her down to New York City Fourth of July, Columbus Day weekend Took her out on those Coney Island rides Walked hand and hand along the boardwalk On the beach into the ocean Got down on one knee asked her to be my wife Sometimes I think of you in the night, Sometimes I dream of you in the night CHORUS I was thinking about you all of my life From the moment that I met you I was hoping to make you my wife Now 25 years have come and gone and we sit on our front porch And the summer sun sets, over the western sky And I look over to you look you in the eye And I thank God, I thank God that we’re still alive Sometimes I think of you in the night Sometimes I dream of you in the night When those western skies of sunset sunrise I thank God I thank God we’re still alive I look you in the eye I can’t believe we’re still here I thank God we’re alive, I look you in the eye I can’t believe we’re still here, I thank God we’re still alive, alive, we’re still alive, alive Sometimes I think of you in the night Sometimes I dream of you in the night Sometimes I think of you in the night
