Girl Who Washed Ashore Songtext
von Family of the Year

The girl sleeps on the island
Her hair is long and brown
Hidin′ from the winter
Dreamin' of another town

You didn′t end up in the city
Like all the years before
Now you're just another
Girl who washed ashore

Showin' off your diamond
Blazin′ in the car
Dreamin′ of the summer
But summer's just too far

You didn′t end up in the city
Like all the years before
Now you're just another
Girl who washed ashore


You broke up with your boyfriend
He threw out all you had
You′re tryin' not to call him
But you get drunk and sad

You could have loved him if you wanted but you wanted more
And we all want what′s best for the girl who washed ashore
You're goin' out to California
Got a ticket in the drawer
We never thought we′d say goodbye
To the girl who washed ashore

You didn′t end up in the city
Like all the years before
Now you're just another girl who washed ashore
You′re goin' out to California
You got a ticket in the drawer
We never thought we′d say goodbye
To the girl who washed ashore

We never thought we'd say goodbye
To the girl who washed ashore
We never thought we′d say goodbye
To the girl who washed ashore
