Shores Don't Ask What's Your Name 2 (έκδοση 2)

Verse

Salt on my skin where the children run

Barefoot and laughing till it's done

Every sand dollar that someone finds

I think of the way they walked behind

No one keeps a list of all we've been

We catch the sunset at the waterline

The palm tree sways but she don't mind

A bottle cap caught in her hair

She brushes it off and never cares

Pre-Chorus

You don't owe me a name or an explanation

Just your shadow on this afternoon's station

Chorus

Shores don't ask what's your name

They just pull you to the flame

Sand remembers who we've been

And so does the sky, and so does the sea again

No need for a badge or a ring

Every footprint tells its own kind of everything

So I watch her run toward the blue

I know the shore is keeping up with you

Verse

Driftwood carved into the shape

Of the hands that held it in the wave

The tide brings back what's been before

And we build a bridge from here to there once more

Every bird sings out its own song

No one needs permission all day long

I follow her where the ocean ends

Where the shore turns up and into your friends

Pre-Chorus

You don't owe me a name or an explanation

Just your shadow on this afternoon's station

Chorus

Shores don't ask what's your name

They just pull you to the flame

Sand remembers who we've been

And so does the sky, and so does the sea again

No need for a badge or a ring

Every footprint tells its own kind of everything

So I watch her run toward the blue

I know the shore is keeping up with you

Bridge

Maybe home isn't something we leave

But something that keeps us from grieving the way

That every wave comes back to land

To the footprints still soft and grand

You don't need a name

Every sand dollar's yours, but the shore doesn't mind your own name

Chorus

Shores don't ask what's your name

They just pull you to the flame

Sand remembers who we've been

And so does the sky, and so does the sea again

No need for a badge or a ring

Every footprint tells its own kind of everything

So I watch her run toward the blue

I know the shore is keeping up with you
