Lyrics

I was walking down the beach
On a Summer Night
A breeze blowing off of the shore
I looked at the beach house
Up on the hill
And you were standing
There at the door
I could see the
Flicker in your eye
Thought I?d gone to heaven
And died
I didn?t know it then
Prophetic of the future
Or so I would testify

Or so I would testify
Or so I would testify

As I was walking by
You nodded your head
Then you followed that with a smile
I asked ?how you doing? and
Within five minutes
You were already in denial
The story about the passing of
Your last three ?friends?
And how they met their untimely ends
Little did I know then
That I might be the next one
That you were going to try and send

Or so I would testify
Or so I would testify

You invited me for coffee
I said how about eight
And that was really all that we said
I didn?t know it then
and little did I realize
You really wanted me dead
If I hadn?t seen the poison
that was sitting at your side
I?d have taken that fatal ride
As you went away in handcuffs
you looked at me to smile
then quietly you whispered
sometimes people lie

or so I would testify ?.
