The Only Place

Best Coast The Only Place Lyrics
1.The Only Place

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

We were born with sun in our teeth and in our hair
When we get bored we like to sit around, sit around and stare
At the mountains, at the birds, at the ocean, at the trees
We have fun, we have fun, we have fun when we please

We wake up with the sun in our eyes
It's no surprise that we get so much done
But we always, yes we always, we always have fun
Yes we always, yes we always, we always have fun

Why would you live anywhere else?
Why would you live anywhere else?
We've got the ocean, got the babes
Got the sun, we've got the waves
This is the only place for me

So leave your cold behind
We're gonna make it to the beach on time
Yeah leave the cold behind
We're gonna make it to the beach on time

Why would you live anywhere else?
Why would you live anywhere else?
We've got the ocean, got the babes
Got the sun, we've got the waves
This is the only place
This is the only place
This is the only place
This is the only place for me


2.Why I Cry

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

Look to the future, nothing's there
Don't know why I even care
Walk around in a haze, seems to be the way I spend my days, I'm
stuck in
the grey
Turn around and no one's there, don't know why I even care
Moods, they swing, the seasons change
easy well who am I to blame, I always complain

'Cause you seem to think you know everything
Yeah, you seem to think you know everything
But you don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry

Before I can stay inside, Oh, how fast the time goes by
Take a pill, spend the bills, seems to be the way I get my
thrill
A never-ending hill

'Cause you seem to think you know everything
Yeah, you seem to think you know everything
But you don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry
You don't know why I cry, why I cry

4.My Life

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

When I go on airplanes, I listen to your voice
And when I go to sleep at night, I'm wishing for a choice
To go back in time
Makes what's wrong feel right
To go back in time
Makes what's wrong feel right, feel right

All the things I'm taking are making me feel insane
And when I go to sleep at night, I'm wishing for a change.
To go back in time
Makes what's wrong feel right
To go back in time
Makes what's wrong feel right, feel right

My mom was right
I don't want to die
I want to live my life
My mom was right
I don't want to die
I want to live my life
My life, my life, my life, my life
My life, my life, my life, my life, my life.


5.No One Like You

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

If I sleep on the floor
Will it make you love me more?
If I pack up my things and leave
Can I still be the queen to your king?
No, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no.

Know that you don't mean to say things
That hurt me and drive me to my knees
Been around this crazy world
But I still want to be your girl
'Cause there's no one like you, no one like you, no one like
you.
No one like you, no one like you, no one like you.
No, no, no, no.
No, no, no. no.


6.How They Want Me To Be

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

All of my friends stick up their noses
Ask me where my money is
Where does it go once I've spent it?

But I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be

Even my own mother asks me a lot of questions
I tell her I don't wanna talk
But she doesn't stop, she's just wondering

But I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be

I want you, you, you, you
I want you, you, you, you

Cause when I wake up in the morning or the middle of the night
I wonder who's there, and what they've said
Yeah, when I wake up in the morning or the middle of the night
I wonder who's there, and what they've said
But when I wake up in the morning or the middle of the night
I look at you and I know it's alright
I wake up in the morning or the middle of the night
I look at you and I know it's alright

Cause you don't want me to be
How they want me to be
You don't want me to be
How they want me to be

And I don't want to be how they want me to be
I don't want to be how they want me to be
You don't want me to be how they want me to be
I don't want me to be how they want me to be

9.Dreaming My Life Away

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

We fell asleep
I saw the trees in my dreams
I want to follow them
Down the road
But it looks dark
And I am all alone
I tried to call you
But you were sleeping
And you were dreaming
That I was on a road
With my best friend
And we were talking
About our dreams
We fell asleep


10.Let's Go Home

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

There is a place where I can go
Where all my secrets, no one knows
I'll meet you there, I'll meet you there
'Cause I don't want to be anywhere else but home

I see myself at 8 years old
I'm on the couch but no one's home
My mom's not around, my dad's out of town,
'Cause I don't want to be anywhere else but home

When will I go home?
When will I go home?

I've seen all the mountains
Yes, I've seen all the trees
I've seen all the water
But nowhere compares to home

Home, let's go home


11.Up All Night

Lyricist:Bethany Consentino
Writer(s):Bethany Consentino

You and me
Too good to be
Too true to be
Too dumb to see

Where i live
And where you live
Are not the same
We're not to blame
It's too crazy
And far to hard
And way to lazy to make it work
So here i am
I'm still alone
I'm still awake
I'm still afraid


I don't know what day it is
Because i've been up all night
I don't know what week it is
Because i've been up all night
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want to see you
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever

You and me
Too good to be
Too true to be
Too dumb to see

Where i live
And where you live
Are not the same
We're not to blame

Now you're of in another town
With another girl
Just sittin around
I'm still here
I'm still alone
I'm still awake
I'm still afraid

I don't know what day it is
Because i've been up all night
I don't know what week it is
Because i've been up all night
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want to see you
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever

You left me here alone.
You left me here in the cold.
You left me here by the sea
Oh well now all i wish i could see
Is you and me.

I don't know what day it is
Because i've been up all night
I don't know what week it is
Because i've been up all night
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want to see you
I want to see you
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Forever

Ooooohhhhh
