Oh, the boardwalk's deserted
Oh, the coast is deserted<br>
There's nobody down by the shore
There's nobody down by the shore<br>
And the Ferris wheel ride
And the whirlpool ride<br>
Isn't turning around any more
Isn't turning around any more<br>
The heat wave and the crowds
The sirens and their song<br>
Are just old news
Are just old fears<br>
But I've still got some sand in my shoes.
But I've still got some wax in my ears
(Sand in my shoes)
Brings mem'ries of the salty air
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa-uh-oh-oh, the blanket that we used to share
How we fell in love down by the sea
Comes back to me (I've still got some sand)
With the sand in my shoes.
Whoa, oh
When the water was cold
You would tremble and hold me so tight
And we'd sit on the beach
Just to wait for the stars to come out at night
The heat wave and the crowds
Are just old news
But I've still got some sand in my shoes.
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa-uh-oh-oh
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa, la, la, la, la, uh-whoa
(Sand in my shoes)
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
