Steve Wariner - Snowfall on the Sand lyrics
(Billy Kirsch / Steve Wariner) Daddy always said he'd come back when the first snow came Bringing treats like Santa Claus on Christmas day Momma always said son don't you get your hopes too high Daddy he's a dreamer reaching for the sky. Still I waited by the window at Christmas time And I sat on the front steps as Easter rolled by Then we moved to Arizona 'round the 4th of July But Daddy never came, I waited just the same. Chorus: And they say it never snows in Arizona But I never stopped believing that it would And before I'd go to sleep at night I'd look up at the desert sky Close my eyes the same ole prayer again I'd wake up and see the snowfall on the sand. Part of growing up for me was learning way too soon The difference between fantasy and cold hard truth Momma liked to say accept those things you cannot change She was scared I 'd be like Dad and dream my life away. But in a corner of my mind I kept a place for him 'Cause a promise lasts forever when you're just a kid Yea, he told me in a season he'd be back again But Daddy never came, I waited just the same. Chorus: And they say it never snows in Arizona But I never stopped believing that it would And before I'd go to sleep at night I'd look up at the desert sky Close my eyes the same ole prayer again I'd wake up and see the snowfall on the sand. Last night my Father's sister called me on the phone Said today your father passed away I thought that you should know You were the one that he thought of As he left this world behind He said tell my boy I'm goning to find a way to Come and say goodbye. And they say it never snows in Arizona But I'm looking out my window and it is And I swear I can't believe my eyes To see the desert painted white For a moment we're together once again As I see the snowfall on the sand... |
