It's a lesson too late for the learnin'
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin'
In your hand, in your handAre you goin' away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Well, I should have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mindAs we walk along, My thoughts are thumblin
This I know, this I know
For the weeds have been steadily growin'
Please don't go, please don't goAre you goin' away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mindAs I lie in my bed in the mornin'
Without you, without you
Each song in my breast dies of bornin'
Without you, without youAre you goin' away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind?
Well, I should have loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
