[Intro]
Mm, mm

[Verse 1]
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 hand

[Chorus]
Are you going away with no word of farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could've loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind

[Verse 2]
As we walk along, my thoughts are tumblin'
'Round and 'round, 'round and 'round
Underneath our feet are someplace rumblin'
Underground, underground

[Chorus]
Are you going away with no word of farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I coulda loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
[Post-Chorus]
Mm
Mm, mm

[Verse 3]
I've got reason a-plenty for goin'
This I know, this I know
For the weeds have been steadily growin'
Please don't go, please don't go

[Chorus]
Are you going away with no word of farewell?
Will there be not a trace left behind?
I could've loved you better, I didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
Oh, you know that was the last thing on my mind
