The Days of Sand and Shovels - Charley Pride[00:00:00]
When I noticed her the first time[00:00:10]
I was outside running barefoot in the rain[00:00:12]
She lived in the house next door her nose[00:00:19]
Was pressed against the window pane[00:00:22]
When I looked at her she smiled[00:00:29]
And showed a place[00:00:31]
Where two teeth used to be[00:00:32]
And I heard her ask her mom[00:00:39]
If she could come outside and play with me[00:00:41]
Soon the days of sand[00:00:49]
And shovels gave way to the mysteries of life[00:00:50]
Then I noticed she was changin'[00:00:58]
And I looked at her through different eyes[00:01:01]
We became as one and knew a love[00:01:08]
Without beginning or an end[00:01:11]
Everyday I lived with her[00:01:18]
Was like a new day dawning once again[00:01:20]
And I've loved her since every doll[00:01:26]
Was Shirley Temple soda pop was still a nickel[00:01:30]
Jam was on her fingertips milk[00:01:38]
Was circkled on her lips[00:01:43]
After many years our love grew silent[00:01:47]
And at night I heard her cry[00:01:51]
When she left me in the fall[00:01:57]
I said that it would be our last goodbye[00:01:59]
I was man enough to give her everything[00:02:07]
She needed for a home[00:02:10]
In searching for a perfect love[00:02:16]
I found that I could not give her a child[00:02:18]
Now she lives a quiet life[00:02:26]
And is the mother of a little girl[00:02:28]
Everytime I pass her house my thoughts[00:02:36]
Go back into another world[00:02:38]
Because I see her little girl her nose[00:02:45]
Is pressed against the window pane[00:02:48]
She thinks I'm a lonely man[00:02:55]
Who wants to come inside out of the rain[00:02:57]
And I've loved her since every doll[00:03:03]
Was Shirley Temple soda pop was still a nickel[00:03:07]
Jam was on her fingertips milk[00:03:15]
Was circkled on her lips[00:03:20]
