Finally, the salty air, mixes with the sun
Your boardwalk was never there
Never needed one
A mighty storm had its way along your shore
And some buildings that stood before
Have fallen hard
The roll of the waves maintain an unbroken song
Much that was here before, ain't where it belongs
Some with machine, some with barely more than hands
Trying to make it right again
And bring ya back to where you've been
I remember
How you pulled me up when joy was aground
I remember
That your broken beach is my golden town
I remember
How you pulled me back when joy was aground
I remember
That your broken beach is my golden town
Watching the seagulls, the glory-filled sky they roam
What's up with the dumb ones
That hang around back at home?
I close my eyes, I feel a sandy bed
While a fine, fine tune plays thinly in my head
Havens I used to know, here's a tear for them
The fortresses in their place
How I'll cheer for them
And I know
You've been battered many times
And that it's only a narrow line
That keeps you here, that lets you shine
I remember
How you pulled me up when joy was aground
I remember
That your broken beach is my golden town
I remember
How you pulled me back when joy was aground
I remember
That your broken beach is my golden town
