Dreaming Out Loud - On the Beach Lyrics

On the beach - wash away - revealing bones - of long gone dreams

A single seagull cries
Some poor beached mammal dies
I sink into the sand
A fallen coin
From a young man’s hand

On the beach
Wash away
Revealing bones
Of long gone dreams
On the beach
Wash away
Revealing bones
Of long gone dreams

A single seagull glides
A muddy little boy cries
I slip on thoughts
The fingered rings
On a young girl’s hand

On the beach
Wash away
Revealing bones
Of long gone dreams
On the beach
Wash away
Revealing bones
Of long gone dreams

A single seagull sings
A lonely parish bell rings
I hesitate
Like the pulse
In an old man’s hand

On the beach
Wash away
Revealing bones
Of long gone dreams
On the beach
Wash away
Revealing bones
Of long gone dreams
