Somewhere in the sand, a little boy builds a castle
|
Surrounds it with high walls,
|
to keep the waves from crashing in,
|
But the tide is just too strong,
|
and his kingdom starts to crumble
|
And grain by grain his castle falls
|
Back into the sea......
|
Somewhere on the ocean, there¡¯s a boat caught in a storm,
|
Tattered sails and broken keel, no way to head for port,
|
At the mercy of the waters,
|
the captain¡¯s done all he can do,
|
As the waves begin to take their toll
|
He prays they¡¯ll make it through¡¦
|
And the winds can be relentless,
|
ever strong and never kind,
|
Leaving you defenseless to face an angry sky,
|
Some have stood against the currents
|
Some have lost their will to stand,
|
And some you¡¯ll find in pieces scattered
|
Somewhere in the sand¡¦.
|
Somewhere in the sand, if you look closely you will see,
|
Among the shells you¡¯ll find,
|
bits of lives and broken dreams,
|
Shifting with life¡¯s winds, carried by it¡¯s changing tides,
|
Some are caught up in the undertow, never to arrive¡¦
|
And the ocean claims it¡¯s treasures,
|
with every ebb and flow,
|
Through all life¡¯s pains and pleasures,
|
it¡¯s hard to ever know,
|
Some have stood against the waters,
|
And some have lost their will to stand¡¦
|
But most you¡¯ll see have found some peace¡¦.
|
Somewhere in the sand¡¦.
|
Somewhere in the sand, a little boy builds a castle
|
Surrounds it with high walls,
|
to keep the waves from crashing in
|
Somewhere in the sand¡¦
