Sands of Dawn 2 4

Intro

Dawn rising where the streetlights fall

Verse

Corner store awning, old men's hands fold in prayer

Sugarcane smoke drifting where the taxi ranks used to stare

Pre-Chorus

Skin remembers what the fire lit

Bare feet on the tar before we quit

Chorus

Sand of dawn where our shadows lie

Neon ash when morning comes to dry

Every brick holds a million footsteps gone

Sands of dawn, let it rise

Verse

Porch swing creaking low under acacia shade

City hums like the river current we used to play

Pre-Chorus

Skin remembers what the fire lit

Bare feet on the tar before we quit

Chorus

Sand of dawn where our shadows lie

Neon ash when morning comes to dry

Every brick holds a million footsteps gone

Sands of dawn, let it rise

Bridge

No more dust bowl, no more city grey

Same sun rising where the streets used to sway

Every wind brings what the river left behind

We keep walking till our footprints blend with time

Outro

Sands of dawn where our shadows lie

Still glowing when the morning comes in
