my life be like

They say that life is a beach, 
so my soul is the sand. 
And the waves are experiences,
like the sun on my hand. 

But this beach isn't permanent, 

It could never be so. 

So some footprints will come, 
and some footprints will go.
With an ever-changing tide, 
you may not ever know. 
But those prints in the sand, 
are only memories now. 
Time and tides gone by,
you'll just wonder how.
How this life got so crazy,
how it went by so fast. 
How those from the present fell into the past.

But those times are behind you,

they're only memories now. 

Memories that built up, 

that even time can't tear down.

So I'll continue on, 
miles down the beach.
Searching for something,
or somebody to reach. 
It's a walk on the beach, 

and a splash in the sea. 

It's a story of you,
and a story of me.
