Song Lyrics

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
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 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
As I lie in my bed in the mornin'
Without you, without you
Each song in my breast lies is burnin'
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
