Jim Ed Brown - Days of Sand and Shovels lyrics
(Bud Reneau - Doyle Marsh) 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 changing 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 this would be our last goodbye. I was man enough to give her Everything she needed for a while But 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 pass her house My thoughts go back into another world. 'Cause I see her little girl Her nose is pressed against the window pane And 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... |
