I Left It on a Beach

High tide is flooding my favorite place on the beach

So I'm taking chances driving aimlessly to find what I need

It's no surprise to me that all I came to see was ruined by the moon

Heaven knows we're going through a storm been

Spinning for years in days

With some surprise the younger ones are teaching us to drive

Fuel a mind

Have you ever been close to the water the sea shells hurt

You said you'd never settle down oh you're only three feet out

Have you ever been close to the fire til your fingers hurt

You said you'd never settle down oh you said not now

I'm taking the time

With delicate tone

To pass on a torch

Engraved with passion

and will melt skin and bone

Stress is punching out my teeth

In dreams I've known

And sometimes

Nowhere to go

I left it on a beach

The day the tide receded

Try your best to keep it
