roy clark - days of sand and shovels lyrics

Loading...

when i noticed her the first time
i was outside running barefoot in the rain
she lived in the house next door
her nose was pressed against the window pane.

when i looked at her she smiled
and showed a place where two teeth used to be
and i heard her ask her mom
if she could come outside and play with me.

soon the days of sand and shovels
gave way to the mysteries of life
then i noticed she was changed
and i looked at her through different eyes.

we became as one and knew a love
without beginning or an end
and everyday i lived with her
was like a new day dawning once again.

and i’ve loved her since every doll was shirley temple
soda pop was still a nickel
jam was on her fingertips
milk was circled on her lips.

after many years our love grew silent
and at night i heard her cry
and when she left me in the fall
i knew that it would be our last goodbye.

i was man enough to give her
everything she needed for a while
in searching for a pefect love
i found that i could not give her a child.

now she lives a quiet life
and is a mother of a little girl
and everytime i p-ss her house
my thoughts go back into another world.

’cause i see her little girl
her nose is pressed against the window pane
she thinks i’m a lonely man
who wants to come inside out of the rain.

and i’ve loved her since every doll was shirley temple
soda pop was still a nickel
jam was on her fingertips
milk was circled on her lips.

after many years our love grew silent
and at night i heard her cry
and when she left me in the fall
i knew that it would be our last goodbye…
