lyrics

For a moment
I thought
That after all
The years and tears
And will they, won’t they
That maybe we would

For just a moment
I saw
The two of us
Standing barefoot
By the ocean
In another world

A brief dream of sun
That I’ll always want
A brief dream of sun
That'll never come

You made me think
That I was something
And maybe I was
But all this time
I tried to find it
I just never could

Maybe if we both
Were older
If we understood
Burning bright
As high as heaven
Is never as good

A brief dream of sun
That I’ll always want
A brief dream of sun
That'll never come

Your silhouette
Against the water
Your footsteps in the sand
Your shadow
Growing longer
Forever fading in my head

A brief dream of sun
That I’ll always want
A brief dream of sun
That'll never come
A brief dream of sun
That I’ll always want
A brief dream of sun
That'll never come

Your silhouette
Against the water
Your footsteps in the sand
Your shadow
Growing longer
Forever fading in my head
