[Intro – Light and sunny] The beach is free… [Verse 1] I packed a bag and left the noise behind Just me, the sand, and a little extra time No schedule screaming, no one needing more Just the sound of the waves and an open door I forgot how it feels to not be on call To let my shoulders drop and not carry it all A little boy said it plain as can be “Isn’t the beach free?” … and suddenly I could see [Pre-Chorus] No tickets, no rules, no one keeping score… [Chorus] The beach is free, and so am I today Toes in the sand, letting worry drift away I can build a castle or just sit and breathe Nothing to prove, nothing I have to achieve The beach is free, and I’m finding me again Laughing at the water like I did back when No more holding tight to everything I should be The beach is free… and so is me [Verse 2] I used to think fun was something I had to earn That rest was a luxury I’d eventually learn But out here with the sun and the salt on my skin I’m remembering the girl who knew how to begin Hands and feet are all I need to make something new A wall in the sand or a message just for you I’m not ungrateful, I’m just waking up slow Letting the tide remind me what I used to know [Bridge] I don’t have to fix it all today… I don’t have to carry every weight… I can just be here… And that is enough [Final Chorus – Brighter] The beach is free, and so am I today Toes in the sand, letting worry drift away I can build a castle or just sit and breathe Nothing to prove, nothing I have to achieve The beach is free, and I’m finding me again Laughing at the water like I did back when No more holding tight to everything I should be The beach is free… and so is me [Outro – Soft and smiling] The beach is free… And so am I… For a little while… That’s enough.
