A Saturday downpour carved out rivers in the sand
|
She said it was her first time to see the sea
|
Helping her climb across those jetty rocks
|
Was the first time I touched her hand
|
|
The rain and the way that felt never let up all week
|
By Thursday I knew everything about her
|
And God, the last day I didn't wanna leave without her
|
|
The sidewalks, the streets were soaked
|
The sky was gray but you should've seen her face
|
Shining like that lighthouse through all the rain
|
And the way she called my name
|
|
I've lived those seven days a thousand times
|
Those seven days a thousand
|
|
Time was like the tide, it came and went
|
That old pier ran clear out into the mist
|
My mind plays back that Tuesday night
|
Again and again, and again
|
|
I taste that saltwater taffy on her lips
|
Wednesday morning snuck in through the window
|
We just laid there and listened to the waves come and go
|
|
The sidewalks, the streets were soaked
|
The sky was gray but you should've seen her face
|
Shining like that lighthouse through all the rain
|
And the way she called my name
|
|
I've lived those seven days a thousand times
|
Those seven days a thousand
|
|
Moments with her, now they're all a blur
|
Except for every second and every word
|
Every drop of rain, every single grain of sand
|
|
The sidewalks, the streets were soaked
|
The sky was gray but you should've seen her face
|
Shining like that lighthouse through all the rain
|
And the way she called my name
|
|
I've lived those seven days a thousand times
|
Those seven days a thousand times
|
|
Seven days a thousand times
|
A thousand times
|
Seven days a thousand times
|
