Lyrics.
There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
I remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
Be together for one more night
Somewhere, somehow
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
( I tried Fall For You from Secondhand Serenade, but TH-cam didnt let me... ) - เกม
I miss the 2000's... I was a kid still and I felt so free, like the whole world was made just for me to explore and play in. This song always takes me back to that feeling.
i knew I was going to cry hearing this song again, but not like this.
Gets you right in the feels
Plpmlll😅😊l@@MrAfrojoe89
When I hear this song I become 16 again for three minutes.
Is it weird I'm 16 rn and like this song?
@@tealnoise its normal my lil brother likes this song hes young
I miss being 16 so much. Having a good time was the only thing that mattered
Im 16 rn and love this song and I'm sure I will I'm 20 years time aswell
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 im 27 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
why is this kind of music so underrated. I could literally listen to this and just have a great day full of memories all day.
It's not underrated, look at the amount of views.
FelisVicarious ok you know what he means right
Because you live in america
it was mainstream when it came out, fuck you mean
It’s a generation song. I listen to it and have hardcore nostalgia
When I hear this song I wonder if they ever found each other.
Allie Duffau they did, he talks about her in his song with you around and that came out in like 2011
Matthew Telliard This is the most reassuring thing I've heard this month thank you omg I'm happy
Sorry, but...
"According to former guitarist Ben Harper, "Ocean Avenue" is written about Jacksonville, Florida. 'It’s this place where we used to hang out in Jacksonville. Instead of talking about a girl, it’s talking about a scene and a feeling that we want to get back to: hanging out and writing, before we moved to California.'"
I live in jax
+fan oh my god seriously that makes this song more nostalgic and heart wrenching imcRyyy
Bro, so if y’all know. That the 2000’s is coming back… well I was chilling at KROGER and this song starts playing… I was so happy! Everybody was right when they said it’s all going to come back.
I wish
**early* 2000’s.
There's still pop-punk music today but it's noever gonna be the same
Ah nostalgia. What an excellent song. Makes me remember another time in another place. A time when I was another person. A time when the world didn't seem quite the same. A time when time had no meaning. A time I can't forget, that I can't escape, but can't go back to and can never truly feel again.
+ChefForte Fuck, the feels man. The feels.
well said :)
It takes me back to a simpler time, a more innocent and fun time.
Edgy
...
But true 😭
ChefForte did u write that urself
I'm traveling through the 2000's
To late
same
i cri when i to late
+Claire Black Cool, can you get my tonsils back from '06?
Boi
Who else listens to depressing music to remember better times? My happiest memories had the saddest soundtracks and im so thankful for every one of them.
I lost my Daddy in September 2020. I listen to this song and always cry. But it makes me happy too. He's always there. Especially when I fish.
Very sorry for your loss, I'm sure your dad is proud of you wherever he is now
I'm so sorry for your loss :(
@@zena2239 yuumi
HOLY EARLY 2000's
+kjenriquez16 Right? Shit man. Been forever since I heard this.
+kjenriquez16 cry every time
Thank God I was born in 2000...
+QweebleTV ehh, being born in 2000s means that you probably couldn't perceive songs from the early 2000s as you'd be like 4 years old. lel
But I can perceive it now. :P
be honest. things song gave you a fucking smile because a memory flashed in to your mind when you hear it.
Yes
*this
Art Tanaquin "It felt so right?" ;)
Gary Turk yup. sleeping up all day stayin up all night dude
Memories? Yes. Smile? Not so much.
I was in elementary when I first heard this song but now I'm in my tertiary years. Time flies so fast but the feeling that this song gives is still the same
Yeah it's right. The same feeling along the time ☺️.
Same man, I was in middle school. But all the heart break and memories back in the day all come flooding back when I listen to these songs again. Puts right back into my young self
Your tertiary years Lol- you mean your 30s?!
Holy shit, it's been years since I've heard this. Memories, man

Wow my best friend went to Yellowcard's farewell tour in New York and he got backstage passes to meet the band. Him and his girlfriend got them to sign an autograph for me and gave it to me for Christmas. I literally cried in front of them....
pussy
@@thatboy8218 i would've cried too
They had a farewell tour? Really...
Rick W r/ihavereddit
Awe they're not together?
My cousin passed away 2 years ago and this was her favorite song. Listening to it brings back good memories
I may be a younger teen but it doesn't hurt to listen to this especially when you like it better than the music now;)
This song makes me realize I've never had a life :')
@Nilson GDF Don't feel sorry, I became accustomed to my own reality and needs, which I came to the conclusion deviate from the average person, and I'm not saying this as to say I'm special or anything. I'm 3 years older than you, this year I took the big step back into education, and stepped down from working full-time to part-time. I'm putting all myself into studying a degree in something I like, in a sector that's also considered lucrative. I save and invest a chunk of my income every month for the sake of a brighter future, so far, I'm feeling good about my life even though my social life is virtually nonexistent, which for an introvert is no big deal. My serenity comes from the awareness of slowly getting in a better position as time goes by, each and every month, that's all I need. Take action, build your future, do your best, the rest will come by itself I suppose... If not, well who cares. :)
Same. At least not the life I necessarily saw for myself. Don't feel alone.
Hey, hope all is good. No, not feeling alone. A bit alienated maybe, but I've been feeling like that my whole life so I'm used to it. I think I'm doing well in both school and work which is all I really care about in this moment of my life. As an update there are some small chances of something playing out in the dating department too; however, the outcome is not so relevant in the end, good if anything happens, no loss if it doesn't play out.
The way I really see it is that being together surely might help, but it won't fix all your problems and, at times, it will make life even worse when the relationship is just being held by the fear of being alone.
I don't know what your problems are but you can almost always turn it around; easier said than done, I know, but that's the harsh truth, the rest is just lack of commitment/desire. Take care.
@@NotMadeOfManitobaFlour Based on a story in history, I made myself a bracelet that says "This too shall pass" It makes me sad when I'm happy, but when I'm sad, it makes me feel a little better. You're right, anything can be turned around. =)
@@MrHawkelement nice one :)
I'm 15, sophomore in highschool. I don't have a good old days yet, but this song reminds me that in 10 years right now will be the good old days. Gotta keep livin'!
Mack Miller you’re in the good old days pal live the fuck out of them !
@@virus5150tacos One of the most valuable lessons in life, man. 26yo now, keep lookin back on better days like an old man. Time waits for nobody, such a bittersweet thing.
Im 16 and a sophomore in high school listening to this song i wish i can go back to my younger days times were indeed simpler back then
So got any good old days now? :)
So how about them good ol days?
Nostalgia mode : Activated
Yellowcard and Blink 182 all day!!!!
StraightThaFuckUp fuck yeah!!!
@@deezphatnutz990 the best shit 🤘
I haven’t heard this song in years and then I heard Jordan Fisher singing a small part of it and here I am.
saaaaaaaame. with Liza Koshy recording him lol
"a little loud."
"apologies."

Same lmao
for some reason this song popped up in my head two days ago and here i am 🤣🤣
God damn man middle school was the shit
Middle school IS shit.
No middle school is JUST shit -high school next year 😐🔫
Chloë Elizabeth Wait until you graduate, you'll miss the fuck out of it
Chloë Elizabeth enjoy those years!!
Zee DeShong enjoy it! I've been out of high school for 8 years now and I wish the problems I had then were my biggest worries now lol
IF I COULD FIND U NOW THINGS WOULD GET BETTERRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!
+danielvutran WE COULD LEAVE THIS TOWN AND RUN FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
***** YEEEEESSSSSSS ^-^
there's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
WHEN I SLEEP I DREAM AND IT GETS ME BYYY
I'm in that part of TH-cam where I wish I was 12 again hanging out with my friends singing along to every song we know without a care in the world. Now I'm 19 and in college buried under mountains of stress.
SAMEEEE :(
Geez, I'm junior in High School and am both looking forward to uni and not. Should I be worried?
You are 21 now,hope everything is okay
Wait till ur 30 :)
How you feeling now?
Im born in 2003...but i realy wish i could have been a teenager at that time an have the time of my life.
I am 33 and this brings back.. so many good times.
when i listen to these songs i get a feeling a sadness and happiness at the same time
26 here, This simple song was way past it’s time when it was released, knowing this would be the song we would all come back to at the right moment and look at us..all sharing memories wonderfully, tears and cheers 🍻 everyone be safe❤️🤘🏼
Reading this a year after you wrote it, about to turn 28. First memory of this is late night MTV at a bff’s that just lost her dad to COVID. Responding bc I’m sad, but your comment hit home & the grand scheme may never make sense, but here we are. Love & light your way.
Man, this song makes me so sad. This was my cousins favorite song, before she passed away, she'd blast this all day and night. She never got tired of it:,)
I was but a little kid when i first heard this. It was my introduction to pop rock, then classic rock, and so on.
I would’ve never discovered my favorite songs without it.
It changed my life that day.
This song was just recommended to me by a DMV worker and I’m not disappointed
" There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight" I can relate to this so much😢
Still listening In 2022 staying up all night listening to this
this song will always and FOREVER bring back amazing nostalgic memories. like every time i jam i wana cry then ride my bike from 3rd grade
I know what u mean :) I miss being an innocent carefree kid
@@littlemissdimples88 same
Going through some rough times right now. Really helps the vibe
My friend lived on Ocean Avenue. Never understood this because we're from the Midwest.
So many beautiful comments. I miss these days too man! The world was our playground then!
I sang this song during class a few days, and it took all i had to hold back the tears because of the memories i had with this song. Music today cant do that to anyone
Even if you have no clue who Yellowcard is you still no every word to this song. Amazing memories. I love Yellowcard and it's always a blast when they play this to close out their shows!
oh the nostalgia ❤
haha right 7th grade all over
+Brittney Triplett yo, you have no idea how much "middle school" this screams to me... or perhaps you do
Yup. Forced shopping with my ex girlfriend in a Hollister. They still make those?
no, production of ex girlfriends ended last year. security updates are still supported though.
Obama Loves Hentai Good
Damn I remember the days when i spent my Elementary days in The Philippines this song used to play a lot on Manila's English Radio stations airwaves (99.5 RT, 97.1 Campus Radio , 89.9 Magic etc.) such a nostalgia hearing this again XD
I'm about to go to college, I'm 18. I have a girlfriend I've been dating since sophomore year. We hit a year and 3 months March 21. I've always listened to pop punk and hated pop rap and stuff. Anyway, I listen to this song as I finish up my entire childhood and prepare for college in just a few months across the country from my home... I think of my life until this point. I imagine sitting up with my girlfriend all night around town like we both have loved to do so much since I first met her. And now we're 18, and even though we're going to try long distance, we'll have to say goodbye. And the whole time I'm thinking "not here, not now..." fuck adulthood. I just want to be a teen my whole life and be with her forever.
Wait if it was since sophomore year, how is that only a year and 3 months..?
+Sean Tobbe Suck it up. Jesus. In the words of Tupac "I'd love to go back to when we played as kids but things changed, and that's the way it is."
+Accapulco Kush the fuck do you think I'm doing? sucking it up. long distance is going well. this is pop punk, if you don't like complaining you've picked the wrong genre.
+Alric *2 years sorry
+Sean Tobbe You have the same name as the violinist in the band Sean Mackin
I wish this music came back full speed back to mainstream
Beautiful
This is one of those songs that can make you remember memories that you never had
this song came out back when I was a kid and I remember growing up in a small town and this song would play on my mp3 and I would think my gf and I at the time, would grow up and leave town and things would be all great for us, but..unfortunately her parents got a better job, and she left town. still wonder how she is doing till this very day. that was middle school lol I'm now in college. damn.
time sure flies by. :)
I need an update! You guys get married? Lol
Those highschool days man, nostalgic
Hello from 2022!! We need more music like this again 💚
i just can't get over the fact that they have a violin in such a punk song and make it work better than anything else in my life wowza
This song brings back so many memories watching music videos at my great grandma house. I miss these times so bad
Facts bro nostalgia I’m having right now of the early 2000’s as a kid great song and great memories that I will always cherish ☺️
@@dzlmacaroni1758 what year were u born
When my mom was in 6th grade she met this boy but they never talked until highschool when they dated. One night this song played and they knew they would be together forever. Eventually they broke up and she met another guy. (We will call other guy og). They had me! Years later og and my mom get divorced. Then, once she turns 43 she gets a mysterious text from the boy she met in high school. Now he is moving in in 9 days!!!
Shes 43?. This song came out when i was in sixth grade and im 28
No it didn't come out in 6th grade she met a boy in 6th grade but they didn't date till after high school
Ok
How did it go after, he moved in?
Nothing bad has happened so it's been nice
YEllowCard forever still rocking it 2015 !!!!!!!!!!!
Takes me back to 2005 when I was in 4th Grade, when I first heard the song.
Where does the time go? 😢
I am thinking the same thing
Thought it was a good idea to dig up this old song I added to my favorites a couple years ago. I find that it is helping me with my depression and I deeply appreciate it.
Man up.
Jacob O Neill hey. you shut the fuck up.
Lol someone's mad
Jacob O Neill You look like a fucking bitch and on top of that you think youre a man , dealing with depression has nothing to do with it.
Just heard them play this earlier today at Warped Tour! So sad to hear they'll be doing their final tour soon.
Youre so lucky!!!! And I don't even want to think about that :(
i was there ay warp tour and its so sad they were a great band
Saw them at warped and their farewell tour hands down the best concerts I've ever been to
I was there too! They put on a good show!
Geez's I'm remembering the good vibes of 2000's
nicholas leiva I wish the 2000’s could come back
@@p0isonabyss same here dude
this song brings back memories from middle school
This song brings back all of my happiest memories from elementary, when I used to have best friends and when my brothers were alive. I sang this alone in tears in my house after the elementary graduation. I never wanted to leave that school. *_EVER_* .This was our jam and now our goodbye song. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see or hang out with my best friends on the last day. I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find them. I didn't even get to say goodbye to everyone and I used to cry everyday. I was bullied for 3 years at middle school, so I continued to cry. Until high school.
8th grade for me
@@HetaliaCalifornia depressing af
yeah I can remember the good times in the 2000s.......from elementary to high school and now graduated from college. Gosh this song makes me feel old.
Depressing no doubt Johnny R.
36 now, heard this song and loved it senior year 03'. Where's my f***ing time machine? The future is false.
Awesome song. I'm 44, & I got to tell you I hate today's music that I hear on the radio when I'm on the highway. This is what real music should sound like!
This is the first rock album I ever bought when I was 12 on vacation in Cali. Now I'm 24 and I just moved back to Cali for good for a new start.
Kids today will never know what they missed in the 90s. The 90s had some of the best music of the generation... I pity them because all they have is One Direction, Justin Bieber et al.
+Telemachus2814 but dude, this is not from the 90's...
Yes, I know, it's from the early 2000s... I was there. I was making a general statement as the 90s genre of music reached into the first few years of 2000s music as well.
you do realize there are millions of great musicians today, and judging by your comment, you haven't taken the time to dig.
I know that there are good artists today, I listen to many of them. However it was a general commentary on the fact that the 90s had some truly great music, as did the generations before it, and the kids of today who are so obsessed with shitty rap et cetera will never know what they missed.
+Adam give me a good yr 2000 bands
I wanna go back to my 13 yr old self and enjoy this again..:)
k1a7x Same here. But meh, time sure is a horrible thing.
Welp i'm 13 right now and listening to this so imma post that same comment one day.
Johnathan Shackleton same
haha same here. Man I can remember the good times in school up until 2012 when I graduated from HS and had to adopt to a new life. Feels like a long time ago now sigh.........
This song is like a flashback oh the tears........
Being 13 rocks
"I remember the look in your eyes. When I told you that this was goodbye. You were begging me not tonight. Not here, not now. We're looking up at the same night sky, and keep pretending the sun will not rise. We'll be together for one more night, Somewhere, somehow." - Awesome lyrics... Gets me every time...
We love the song but if you really think about it, it is just about an ex feeling the sweet regret we wanted them to feel for breaking up with us.
This song PRODUCED nostalgia in me and I didn't even listen to this type of music in my teens.
My best friend for 7 years dedicated this song to me while we were still friends, never really knew how much meaning this song had wish we were still friends however life isn’t always fair. Enjoy yall
Ya know Yellowcard has to be the only band in existence to use a violin. I have yet to hear a unique sounding band like this!
The All American Rejects use Violin too.
same with flogging molly
One republic as well
you're right! I think they actually invented the violin
reverbnation.com/deadwatt
I just turned 26, this song still slaps!
This song came out 2 months before I was born and I love this song
This song means everything to me!
The first time I heard this song I was like 7 or 8 and it was on one of those portable battery radios that uses headphones. I used to lay in bed at night and listen to the local alternative station. Time flies.
Best instrumental for healing a depression. Who agrees?
I never want this song to go ,this the best song that still gives me good memories.. growing up fucking sucks. As a little kid it's more adventuring and fun. Growing up is hell and torture :(
Heard this song on the radio last night. I remember it being among my favorites years ago! Good to see it/hear it again. :D
I remember seeing this on MTV back in the day. Good times.
2022. High school days. This song still rocks. 👌
Wish 2020 song was like this
Takes me back to like 04 when I was having some of thegreatest times of my life! I miss being 32!
Everytime I listen to this song I think about when I saw them at Warped tour, I was directly in front of them behind the rail. It was perf. Everyone knew the words and was in perfect sync.
I will always love this song. This brings be back to listening to this when I was in middle school
I heard a cover band play this last week, it brought back so many memories
brings back sooo many memories
Going to Wildwood when I was 16, whenever we crossed Ocean Ave heading to the Boardwalk me and my friends would always start belting out these lyrics.
Wtf I’m 26 and it’s 2019 and in 3 days it’s 2020 AND IM STILL LISTENING TO THIS SINCE I WAS HIGHSCHOOL 😭❤️
I've listened to them before they were even big. Good ole' hometown band. Went to school with the lead singer's sister. The school's name was Douglas Anderson School of the Arts. Located in in good ole' Jacksonville, FL. Opened for them and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus multiple times, and I'm really good friends with a couple of members of both bands. Duval has some great musical talent, including other bands like Shinedown, Lynard Skynyrd, and .38 Special, to name a few. I was at Yellowcard's last concert at a local joint called Freebird Live (started by a few members of Skynyrd, as the name shows, but it's since closed down and been replaced by a place called Surfer the Bar in Jax Beach). Good times that I miss. You've got great taste in music.
Man I remember when I was in kindergarten and I always road the small bus that would always take me directly to my house and pick me up from my house to school and whenever I was on the bus this song ALWAYS played on the bus. Ever since then was when I started to love this band. Damn brings back memories.
I remember when this was first on Fuse when I was a kid.. Forget how old I was but it was around the time the video for this came out. Instantly was my favorite song even though all I understood was there was a kickass video, and it wasn't rap lol.
Yeah, man Fuse used to be rocker kid's refuge. Me and my friends were anti-rap because we were REBELS dammit! And then Fuse went to shit just like MTV did.
This song will always remind me of her, and I will miss her forever. So many mistakes, and so many regrets. I spent two years loving her. I've moved on, and continued on with my life. As a whole I'm doing just fine, but there will always be that piece of me that would give anything for her. This song is the epitome of those feelings.
2018?CMON I CANT BE THE ONLY ONE AM I? IM SOOO LONLEY😢😥
Sakamaki brothers you’re not alone :’)
👋 hi🌹🖤
Yo.
Ayyyyy
what are you talking about? am listening to this everyday.
Oh my god I haven't heard this in years,,,,
The early 2000’s and late 90’s seemed like a blast. Everything seems so edgy and fun.
omg like the perfect song to play at the high school graduation party, ppl getting wasted a night to remember before everything gets serious and we actually HAVE TO BE ADULTS!!!!-Empress
I still always come back here, my childhood song
I am going through all the songs I used to listen to as a child and teen haha
You know you have good taste in music when your homies ask the song title ;)
This song makes me straight up cry. 😭😭😭 so many memories... every time I listen to this song, I become emo again 💀
Anyone else remember hearing this song for the first time as a freshman or sophmore in high school?
I've heard it in my freshman year in high school, the memories...smh
Dude try like 3rd grade... This band has been my jam since then
You are a wee lad.
Hell yes! I mean, I was a junior in high school when this was popular, but the baseball bat, known as, Nostalgia has smacked me on the dome.
This was the first album I ever owned. I played a ton of Madden 04 and fell in love with the band after hearing Way Away on the soundtrack so I asked for the album for my birthday. This will always be one of my all-time favorite songs and album
My siblings are 90’s kids and our mother had CD’s of all these different singers and groups. By the time I came along, this was one of the songs I remember well listening to ✨❤️
This is why we need more Burnout games.
I cant be the only one still listening to this in 2018 ? 🖤
Still one of my fav songs in 2018
Your not
listening to this in 2019 lol
i'm listening in 2019
Such a memorable song. Bittersweet feelings listening to it. Teared up a little actually. I used to listen all the time to Yellowcard when I was a teenager
My exgirlfriend died two days ago and this was one of her favorite songs but it reminded her of her brother who died when she was a teenager. Now i think about her and feel the same way. Rip Kendall Payne
