Seven Days

A Saturday downpour carved out rivers in the sand
She said it was her first time to see the sea
Helping her climb across those jetty rocks
Was the first time I touched her hand
The rain and the way that felt never let up all weekBy Thursday I knew everything about her
God, the last day I didn't wanna leave without herThe sidewalks, the streets were soaked
The sky was gray but you should've seen her face
Shining like that lighthouse through all the rain
And the way she called my name
I've lived those seven days a thousand times
Those seven days a thousandTime was like the tide, it came and went
That old pier ran clear out into the mist
My mind plays back that Tuesday night again and again
And again I taste that saltwater taffy on her lipsWednesday morning snuck in through the window
We just laid there and listened to the waves come and goThe sidewalks, the streets were soaked
The sky was gray but you should've seen her face
Shining like that lighthouse through all the rain
And the way she called my name
I've lived those seven days a thousand times
Those seven days a thousandMoments with her, now they're all a blur
Except for every second and every word
Every drop of rain, every single grain of sandThe sidewalks, the streets were soaked
The sky was gray but you should've seen her face
Shining like that lighthouse through all the rain
And the way she called my name
I've lived those seven days a thousand times
Those seven days a thousand timesSeven days a thousand times
A thousand times
Seven days a thousand times
A thousand times
