Lyrics
I walk these weathered sands alone
And think about the long ago
This beach alive in sunshine
And you
Lookin cool
On your towel blue
She shoots a smile across the breeze
Finds its mark with simple ease
A moment in the sunshine
Rings true
For me and you
But that was long ago
Rusted reflections flush with youth
Saved on the shelf, like bittersweet fruit
From a Mason jar
That's what you are
A notion that was once so fine
Twisted by the hands of time
Lights on a perch so narrow
To sing a song
And then is gone
I wandered my old neighborhood
Saw my house, and thought I should
Find comfort there
But it never came
Just fallin rain
Had to walk away
To see what I once had
I wrote myself a letter
An archive in the present tense
To tell me not to dwell within the past
Memories last
But they always bow
To the here and now
And think about the long ago
This beach alive in sunshine
And you
Lookin cool
On your towel blue
She shoots a smile across the breeze
Finds its mark with simple ease
A moment in the sunshine
Rings true
For me and you
But that was long ago
Rusted reflections flush with youth
Saved on the shelf, like bittersweet fruit
From a Mason jar
That's what you are
A notion that was once so fine
Twisted by the hands of time
Lights on a perch so narrow
To sing a song
And then is gone
I wandered my old neighborhood
Saw my house, and thought I should
Find comfort there
But it never came
Just fallin rain
Had to walk away
To see what I once had
I wrote myself a letter
An archive in the present tense
To tell me not to dwell within the past
Memories last
But they always bow
To the here and now
