Sand

Marry me, oh, ocean wide.
Sing to me your song.
But leave your ocean sand behind,
'Cause we don't get along.

I walked the beach in the moonlight,
The sand between my toes.
Back in bed to rest at night,
The scent lives in my clothes.
Crash your waves upon the rocks,
Making us new sand.
Soon our world will belong to you,
You're taking over land.

Marry me, oh, ocean wide.
Sing to me your song.
But leave your ocean sand behind,
'Cause we don't get along.

I brush my legs across the beach,
Scrapes and cuts my skin.
Although a cure is not in reach,
We never try to win.

Marry me, oh, ocean wide.
Sing to me your song.
But leave your ocean sand behind,
'Cause we don't get along.

The last day at the beach for me,
I never let emotion show.
I'll fill a bag with sand to keep
Every time I go.
