Salt and Sand

© 2004, Lyrics and Music by Jason Didner


Windshield wipers are frozen and it's hard to see 
If there's dangerous obstacles in front of me 
It's a slippery turnpike and the left lane's out 
These times can test your grip on what your life's about

In my engine the gremlins knock my self esteem 
As they try to drive down the value of my dreams 
As I struggle for traction up this icy hill 
They make me think dark thoughts but they can't break my will 

Let's move on forward, here's to making our way 
To the dreams we work for coming into reach 
Salt and sand on this icy highway 
Will be salt and sand on a summer beach 
Salt and sand on this icy highway 
Will be salt and sand on a summer beach

I can feel your frustration as you spin your wheels 
I'm identifying big-time with the way you feel 
You set your plan and watch it get pushed back 
It takes a steady hand to get you back on track

Yeah the heat of anger may move us along 
But it ain't no substitute for staying strong 
Today we won't be quickly satisfied 
But we've got dreams of a lifetime that won't be denied

Let's move on forward, here's to making our way 
To the dreams we work for coming into reach 
Salt and sand on this icy highway 
Will be salt and sand on a summer beach 
Salt and sand on this icy highway 
Will be salt and sand on a summer beach

We can fade 
Or we can shine 
The way we choose to walk the line

Let's move on forward, here's to making our way 
To the dreams we work for coming into reach 
Salt and sand on this icy highway 
Will be salt and sand on a summer beach 
Salt and sand on this icy highway 
Will be salt and sand
Will be salt and sand
Will be salt and sand on a summer beach
