Sand

Your eyes they look right through me
Your smile it seems to say you've given in
We'd fallen for each other
A memory that wouldn't fade away

With the rush
We broke the hush

YOU CARRIED ME DOWN
WARMLY IN YOUR ARMS
BURIED AND HELPLESS
SWIRLING IN YOUR CHARM

YOU CAN'T TELL ME NOW
ALL THAT WE HAVE MADE
WAS NOTHING MORE THAN SAND
WITHIN OUR HANDS

SLIPPING OUT
SLIPPING OUT
JUST LIKE SAND
WE WERE JUST LIKE SAND

Since then our corners wore off
Our edgy began to fade away
Often at night I've wondered
How we had come to throw it all away

But in the end
Our hearts will mend

TO CARRY US DOWN
THROUGH THE HOURGLASS
LOST AND DISTRACTED
WAITING FOR OUR TIME TO PASS

HELP ME TONIGHT
THIS VOICE WITHIN MY HEAD
WAS EVERYTHING YOUR TOUCH
HAD EVER SAID

SLIPPING OUT
RUNNING OUT
THROUGH MY HANDS
NOTHING MORE THAN SAND

Please turn it around
Leave me with some hope
Cos I can't remember
Ever falling this far

Before you leave tonight
Remember all we had
Wasn't nothing more
Than noise inside our heads

Fading out
Slipping out
We can't pretend
Through our hands


I long to wake beside you
To turn and reach out
For your hand again
