Memories in the Sand

[Verse 1] Every grain beneath my feet Has carried someone else's dreams Kingdoms faded with the tide But never left this place behind The wind begins to softly climb Pulling echoes out of time Faces dancing in the air Like they were always waiting there [Pre-Chorus] Close your eyes... Don't be afraid... Some things are never truly gone... [Chorus] Memories in the sand Running through my open hands Every laugh and every tear Still survives the passing years Nothing loved is ever lost Every heartbeat leaves its mark Listen close... The desert sings... Every grain remembers. [Verse 2] Children laughing by the fire Broken strings on old guitars Promises beneath the stars Still shimmer where the footprints are The dunes don't bury who we've been They keep the stories safe within Every storm just turns the page Time becomes another age [Pre-Chorus] If you listen... You'll hear them... Calling your name... [Chorus] Memories in the sand Running through my open hands Every sunrise, every scar Made us everything we are Nothing loved is ever lost Not to silence... Not to dust... Every step becomes a part Of the endless human heart [Bridge] So let the wind... Carry your story... Let tomorrow... Learn your name... Nothing disappears... It only... Changes shape... [Breakdown] I CAN STILL HEAR THEM! EVERY VOICE! EVERY NAME! EVERY DREAM THEY LEFT BEHIND! THEY NEVER LEFT! THEY NEVER FADED! THEY'RE WRITTEN... IN THE SAND! [Final Chorus] Memories in the sand Now I finally understand Time was never meant to steal Only teach us how to heal Every ending leaves a spark Burning somewhere in the dark Take my hand... Don't be afraid... The heart remembers... Even when we forget. [Outro] When the wind begins to rise... Listen... Someone you love... Is saying hello.
