The Sound Of Water

Lyrics

When I was young, and full of hope, I dreamed of pirate’s gold
But now I’ve grown, I seldom tell the stories I once told
The years have come and gone my friend and never they’ll return
But sometimes I look back on life and wonder what I’ve learned

Take me back, take me back to those summer days
On sunny days, we’d run over the sand, and we’d search for pirate’s gold
It was there we first set sail, wrote the early chapters of our tale
Set a course for our dreams, and a different pirate’s gold

I went to school to learn the rules, and wonders of the world
But soon I learned the simple truth, with money heads will turn
Now that’s not how it’s meant to be, if truth is what you seek
And love and friendship mean much more than riches you can keep

Take me back, take me back to those summer days
On sunny days, we’d run over the sand, and we’d search for pirate’s gold
But I’ve learned along the way, win or lose, it’s just the way we play
Not the glories we find, on our search for pirate’s gold

When I was young, and full of hope, I dreamed of pirate’s gold

Take me back, take me back to those summer days
On sunny days, we’d run over the sand, and we’d search for pirate’s gold
But you can’t go back in time, change the story or the nursery crime
So, treat life as the jewel, and don’t be fooled by pirate’s gold
