It's six o'clock and here I am on this beach
A good place for thinking, low tide.
Everyone is asleep, except me, all is calm,
And I'm writing a song for you in the early morning
Without a guitar and without anyone to listen to it on the sand.
And I say, still the silence echoes
The memory lingers
Still the memory lingers
Parted by the wind
The silence lingers.
It's six o'clock or maybe my watch has stopped,
And the waves carried away my words
And the prints I've left with the palm of my hand
And now the only thing that lingers is the noise echoing in my head
And the retreating foam
That lingers.
And I say, still the silence lingers
The memory lingers
Still the memory lingers
Parted by the wind
The silence lingers.
And I say, still the silence lingers
The memory lingers
Still the memory lingers
Parted by the wind
The silence lingers.
As a black tear
Fell into the broken sand,
The silence lingers,
The memory lingers,
Still the moment lingers
