Mansions In The Sand - Donavon Frankenreiter

The summer on the docks

Remember all we did

And all those things you said

That they’re not so long ago

When we were kids

I used to drive around in the summer late

I rolled the windows down and laughed

And listening to that sound

Old box of tapes

And there’s so much to change

And the waves are breaking

Oh, my heart is taking all she can

Come one day down to wash away

All those crumbling mansions on the sand

I’ve seen the neighborhood

I get a splash of paint

And fix the rotten wood

You know there’s so much here

The sun has caused to fade

And there’s so much to change

And the waves are breaking

Oh, my heart has taken all she can

Come one day down to wash away

All those crumbling mansions on the sand

And I’ll try to wrap my arms around the sea

Well, I’ll try to hold this surf back and the tide

Well, I’m holding on to something that can’t be

No matter how I try

And there’s so much to change

And the waves are breaking

Oh, my heart has taken all she can

Come one day down to wash away

All those crumbling mansions on the sand

Summer on the docks

Remember all we did

And all those things you said back then

Not so long ago when we were kids
