We tried to watch the sun rise,
but a cloud fell and we froze inside your coat
One arm for you, and one for me--
two arms crossing, winding
as the tide roared in
The highway howling high above,
the smoke rolled in and covered us
It smothered us but still we wished
the seconds could be years
Laguna Beach was soaked in tears,
the sea retreated,
the world retreated
Nothing left but sand
Laguna Beach ran through our hands
A castle rose, a story closed too soon
