The Sand and the Score

[Intro]
[Verse]
The gate swings slow
The porch lights glow
The salt winds blow
I’m home, I know
The wood floors creak
The shadows speak
Of memories I seek
Upon this coastal peak
[Pre-Chorus]
I lift the lid
Where secrets hid
Beneath the dust
And years of rust
I find the page
From another age
Escaping the cage
Of center stage
[Chorus]
Play the G minor line
Make the old music shine
Gran’s hand in mine
A melody divine
Pop chords and grace
In this quiet place
The sea sings along
To our secret song
[Post-Chorus]
(Vocalise - Ah, ah-ah)
(Vocalise - Oh, oh-oh)
[Verse]
Sand on the keys
Summer sea breeze
Memories at ease
Down on my knees
She taught me scales
And tall sea tales
Where logic fails
And hope prevails
[Pre-Chorus]
Her script is light
In the fading night
A lullaby blue
For me and you
I hum the part
Close to my heart
Where the echoes start
A work of art
[Chorus]
Play the G minor line
Make the old music shine
Gran’s hand in mine
A melody divine
Pop chords and grace
In this quiet place
The sea sings along
To our secret song
[Bridge]
Woodwinds rise like the tide
Nowhere left for grief to hide
Strings pull at the golden light
Guiding me through the night
Classical bones and a modern beat
Making the bitter taste so sweet
The piano hums a low refrain
To wash away the winter rain
[Hook]
Salt on the ivory
Lost in the scenery
Old world machinery
New world greenery
[Chorus]
Play the G minor line
Make the old music shine
Gran’s hand in mine
A melody divine
Pop chords and grace
In this quiet place
The sea sings along
To our secret song
[Post-Chorus]
(Vocalise - Ah, ah-ah)
(Vocalise - Oh, oh-oh)
[Outro]
