It's a lesson too late for the learning
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin’
In your hand, in your hand
Are you going away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Well, I could've loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind

You’ve got reason a plenty for goin'
This I know, (this I know), this I know
For the weeds have been steadily growin'
Please don't go, please don't go
Are you going away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a tracе left behind
Well, I could'vе loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind

When I lay in my bed in the mornin'
Without you (without you), without you
Each song in my heart lies a bornin’
Without you, without you
Are you going away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Well, I could’ve loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
