House on a Beach

	I need a house on a beach
	Facing out to the deep blue sea
	I need to put up my feet
	One day to do nothing else but sleep
	And it all starts with a house on a beach
	I can see it in my mind
	Name is painted on an old driftwood sign
	Hanging above the screen door in the back
	That opens up to the porch and the best view I've ever had
	I need a house on a beach
	And a beautiful woman next to me
	A couple of kids in the sand
	We'll make some castles then make ‘em again
	Feel the tide cover up our feet
	And it all starts with a house on a beach
	I can see it in my mind
	Name is painted on an old driftwood sign
	Hanging above the screen door in the back
	That opens up to the porch and the best view you’ve ever had
	And it feels just like my dream
	That always starts with a house on a beach
	I need a house on a beach
	Somewhere the arms of this city are never gonna reach
	Out past the concrete and the street lights
	Me and the salt on the breeze under the night skies
	Where I can slow down and listen to my dreams
	It’s the same one I've had every night for weeks
	It ends with a fever and slips back out of reach
	But always starts with a house on a beach
	I need a house on a beach
	Facing out to the deep blue sea
