[Verse 1]
Grandma's stories flow like tides
Of steel works glowing in the night
Now empty halls and broken glass
Where dreams of thousands slipped away fast
The waves keep eating at the shore
Just like time keeps changing what we know
[Chorus]
We're all just shifting sands
Washing through life's weathered hands
But darling we still stand
On this ever-changing land
Though nothing stays the same
Some things remain, remain
[Verse 2]
Down by the Tyne where ships once sailed
Now coffee shops and urban trails
My reflection in the window pane
Shows a girl I barely recognize again
The streets remember working boots
While I dance in vintage second-hand shoes
[Bridge]
Remember what she said that day
"The coast is different, love, it changes every day
But we adapt, we always find our way"
Her voice still echoes through these changing days
[Chorus]
We're all just shifting sands
Washing through life's weathered hands
But darling we still stand
On this ever-changing land
Though nothing stays the same
Some things remain, remain
[Verse 3]
The factory whistle's gone quiet now
But seagulls still know their way around
New stories rising from the dust
Of what we lost and what we've just become
Some days I miss what used to be
But change flows through my veins so naturally
[Outro]
Like footprints on the shore
We leave our mark before
The tide comes rolling in
To let new life begin
We're shifting, always shifting
But somehow we keep living
In this dance of loss and grace
Finding beauty in this place
