Golden sun is sinking slow over the bay
Shadows stretch where the palm trees sway
A memory drifts in the ocean’s glow
Of a love I had but had to let go
The waves hum a tune only we used to know
Where the sand met our footprints long ago
We laughed and we danced till the morning was near
But the tide washed away what we held dear
Laguna love under skies of fire
Hearts burned bright with endless desire
But the shore couldn’t hold what we tried to save
Now it’s just me and the sound of the waves
Pedal steel weeps like the tears I’ve cried
For a dream that was lost with the ebbing tide
A simple chord
It plays in my mind
Reminds me of a love I’ll never find
Now I walk alone where the seafoam rests
The moon on the water
A ghostly guest
The gentle drums echo my hollow heart
As the bass beats time since we fell apart
Laguna love under skies of fire
Hearts burned bright with endless desire
But the shore couldn’t hold what we tried to save
Now it’s just me and the sound of the waves
