Roll Away
By Dan Ennis www.musictx.com/danennis

We met outside of Washington
When the grass was high and the wind was warm
We played and we sang and we danced all day
And listened to the trains roll away, roll away

She was fourteen and I was ten
Space and time were both transcend
With a kiss on the cheek and a grab of the hand
We left baby footprints in the sand, in the sand

It didn’t take much to make her smile that day
I’ll always remember her that way

But like a fire that lost its spark
It got cold as it grew dark
And in the naked night she went away

Now every night I write the song
Of the golden beach and the ruby sun
Of a love that’s gained and a love that’s lost
As the sun sinks down off the cost, off the cost

But like a fire that lost its spark
It got cold as it grew dark
And in the naked night she went away

We met outside of Washington
When the grass was high and the wind was warm
We played and we sang and we danced all day
And listened to the trains roll away, roll away
