Shadows on the Sand
Musical Style 1980s AOR pop-rock. A driving drum beat, groovy bass line, and lush synths. The style is big, epic, and nostalgic, with a melodic marimba melody that gives it a unique and distinctive sound. Vocal Style A powerful and emotional male voice. The tone is melodic and full of longing, with rich vocal harmonies that add a choral and majestic quality to the chorus.

Lyrics
Verse 1
I saw the setting sun, on a digital screen
A desert of golden dust, the most beautiful I've seen
I heard a whispered story, from a memory so long
Of a time before the silence, where I knew that I belonged
I feel the distant rhythm, from a place I've never known
On a lonely highway now, feeling so alone
Chorus
It's just the shadows in the sand, they're calling out my name
They say you'll never understand, this everlasting flame
Oh, they say you're coming home, to a memory so old
You're a story on the wind, a truth that must be told
It's just the shadows in the sand, from a life that I can't find
A perfect picture on the shore, of all the things I left behind
Verse 2
I know the empty spaces, that fill the restless nights
Yeah, a photograph of sunlight, from all my faded lights
They said the world was cruel, with so much left to break
But I'd give up every moment, for a single chance to take
I know your eyes are waiting, on the distant, silent dune
For me to come and find you, underneath the silver moon
Chorus
It's just the shadows in the sand, they're calling out my name
They say you'll never understand, this everlasting flame
Oh, they say you're coming home, to a memory so old
You're a story on the wind, a truth that must be told
It's just the shadows in the sand, from a life that I can't find
A perfect picture on the shore, of all the things I left behind
...Echoes in the sand...
...Calling out my name...
...The echoes in the sand...
