Kids On The Beach |
LyricsKIDS ON THE BEACHMark Patterson Copyright 2023 The surf was freezing but the sand was warm The shoreline stretched for a mile Between the sun and senoritas a guy could get burned But some things you just can't teach Like the memories made and the lessons we learned When we were just kids on the beach Little ones laugh playing tag with the waves Teenage couples watch for awhile But they're too busy playing their own game And though the prize is different for each They can play it forever but it's never the same As when they were kids on the beach Growing up a block from the ocean Falling asleep to the surf every night Childhood dreams and plans set in motion Offshore breeze whispers everything is alright An older couple was watching us once Something about us just made them smile By remembering summers so long ago When the dream was still within reach If they only knew then what now they know When they were just kids on the beach If they only knew then what now they know When they were just kids on the beach When they were just kids on the beach We were just kids on the beach |
