I promised you on an ocean of
Mother of pearl, gold, and indigo
Cut through the waves, I watched you swim away
I'll never love you more than today
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Now black light sets on my short day
Oh, you betrayed me, you gave it away
You don't mind picking up salt to rub into my wounds
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you betray me
Or save me
Save me from you
(Miami ba...)
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you betray me
Or save me
Save me from you
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you betray me
Save me
Save me
Mother of pearl, gold, and indigo
Cut through the waves, I watched you swim away
I'll never love you more than today
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Now black light sets on my short day
Oh, you betrayed me, you gave it away
You don't mind picking up salt to rub into my wounds
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you betray me
Or save me
Save me from you
(Miami ba...)
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you betray me
Or save me
Save me from you
Would you be there
Be there
Be there for me
Would you betray me
Save me
Save me

I found this: Yannis Philippakis told The NME: “It’s just to do with having bad experiences every summer on Greek beaches, where I’d have a crush on somebody and it wouldn’t go well. I’ve never been to Miami, but I wanted to set it there because I like the imagery of Scarface: bad suits, turquoise beaches and really white teeth.”
Makes sense to me!!
