Westbrook - Washed Away Dreams Lyrics

Our lives are like chalk on the sidewalk
Bright and bold 'til the rain takes its toll
Dreams we draw in the summer sun
Washed away when the storm's begun
We write our tales in the warm daylight
But when the clouds gather they're out of sight
Hopes etched in hues so bright
Fade away in the stormy night
Washed away dreams colors running down the drain
Washed away dreams a dance of joy and pain
Struggles come and go like the ebb and flow of rain
Time's a river relentless and deep
Carries our secrets dreams we keep
We face each storm with hearts so brave
But the rain erases every mark we make
In the heat of the day we carve our names
But the night brings down its claim
Moments fleeting like shadows cast
Washed away nothing ever lasts
Washed away dreams colors running down the drain
Washed away dreams a dance of joy and pain
Struggles come and go like the ebb and flow of rain
So we draw again beneath the sky so wide
Knowing there'll be storms but we never hide
Our lives may fade with each downpour
But we keep on drawing evermore
Washed away dreams colors running down the drain
Washed away dreams a dance of joy and pain
Struggles come and go like the ebb and flow of rain
Waiting out the rain with spirits high
Our colors may fade but we still try and try
Washed away dreams we will meet again
In the sunlight after the hard cold rain
