Summer sun - Up in the sky
Shinning down - On the dry, dry land
Embers fell - From that summer sky
And took away - My childhood life
So we ran - To this sandy shore
With the fire - Licking at our door
And we watched - As the whole town burned
On that day - My whole life turned
Oh I wish I could see it again
If my old house could open up its doors
I'd never take it for granted again
I'll hold onto - The ghosts of my old town
Where's my sister - Where's my mother
Where's my father - Where's the others
As the day - Turned into night
We all prayed - For their lives
If you're up there God - Please let them get away
If you're up there God - Please let them live, let them live another day
If you're up there God - If you're up there God
If you're up there God - If you're up there God
Can you hear me God
Oh I still see them now
Some still here and some have gone away
I'll never take them for granted again
I'll hold onto - The ghosts of my old town
That was all - So long ago
And that fire - Is now a distant glow
And as I walk - On this sandy shore
I will remember - forevermore
Summer sun - Up in the sky
Shining down - On the dry, dry land
Embers fell - From that summer sky
And burned away - my childhood life.
