The Sands of Home

I still can feel the white sand between my toes
In the rolling hills where the wild grass grows
Far away from the jungle of stone and glass
Watching the shadows of the summer clouds pass
Playing marbles in the dirt until the Sun went down
Just a couple of kids in a tiny town

At the school bench, talking 'bout the shows on TV
We were rich in dreams, as happy as we could be

Hey! Take me back to the hills and the sand
Back to the peace of that simple land
Where the time was light and the world was small
We had nothing, but we had it all!
Yeah, we were happy and we didn't even know!

Just a few good friends, a ball and a goal
Feeding the fire of a young boy's soul
No cell phones ringing, just the wind in the trees
Living our lives on our dirty knees
I miss the brotherhood, the laughter and the play
In the golden light of a summer day

The hills are still standing!
The memory is calling!
I can still hear us shouting!

Hey! Take me back to the hills and the sand
Back to the peace of that simple land
Where the time was light and the world was small
We had nothing, but we had it all!
Yeah, we were happy and we didn't even know!

In the sands of home
Yeah, we had it all
