Verse
Sunrise over the waterline and I'm alone on the boardwalk
Sand still warm beneath my feet where we left off last week
Palm trees leaning in as if they know a secret too
Pre-Chorus
Tell me what it means to keep this place a home
Every year you leave, but somehow you never roam
Is it just the sun or something deeper in the tide?
Chorus
Every shoreline is a story we don't finish writing yet
Salt on my lips and I can still taste your hand in it
Every sunset's another chapter I haven't read
You'll be back again next summer, same waves on every thread
Verse 2
Your sweater left folded by the pier where you said goodbye
The gulls are calling as if they know why I cry
The tide is pulling me out to sea once more
Pre-Chorus
Tell me what it means to keep this place a home
Every year you leave, but somehow you never roam
Is it just the sun or something deeper in the tide?
Chorus
Every shoreline is a story we don't finish writing yet
Salt on my lips and I can still taste your hand in it
Every sunset's another chapter I haven't read
You'll be back again next summer, same waves on every thread
