I know the channel so well
It feels so smooth and warm to the touch
When I feel it in my mind
Like an old pebble in my pocket
Like that fossil from Bracklesham Bay
I found in my pocket a year later
All smooth and familiar, recovered
Once treasured and found once again

Old friend, like a stone in my pocket
Unlock it
The memories that rocket right out when I touch it
So smooth to the fingers
So smooth like a bone
This small stone, turn it 'round and around
Still some sand from the beach
Where we found it, that summer
When we were alone

You found it, you couldn't believe it
Just lying there crying to be found
And your little white fingers reached out just to feel it
When you picked it up, said to me, "Mommy, let's take it home"
So smooth like a bone
This little grey stone
With the fins of a fossil stamped into its skin
An echo, a memory, a cry to go home
And you cried, you cried to go home

Out on the sand
Holding hands and warm from the sun
At the edge of the land
Where the waves dissolve into ground

Come and look at what I've found
I nearly missed it in the glimmer of the sea
A pebble on the beach as smooth and warm by memory
As the waves that carve the shape of you and me

When I think of that day
I can feel the warmth from the sun
And your hand in my hand
Even though that day is long gone

Here's that pebble that we found
I thought it lost, but in the twinkle of an eye
Time goes flying by and in that well-worn memory
I feel the waves that carve the shape of you and me

Out on the sand
With your tiny hand held in mine
The widest horizon's in your eyes

Come and show me what we found
You nearly missed it in the glimmer of the sea
Pebble on the beach
As smooth and warm as memory
Like that pebble on the beach
We all are carried out to sea
On the waves that carve the shape of you and me
