Chalk up another bridge
That I've burnt
Before I crossed
I'd like another chance
To to to win back
Whatever I lost

What did I say?
What did I say to you?
To push you away
What can I do?
What can I do?
To be for you, the hero of your day

Sand through my fingers
Always returns to the waves
Love runs like water
For you keep slippin' away

Another dance, one
More advance
And you escape my kiss
But you must understand
A mortal man can be nothin'
When his love is missed

Here you are before me
Like a brick wall, beautiful and tall
I try to get through
But I don't want to harm you

Here I am like a tidal wave
Or a ripple on the lake
I try to seem strong
But only time can charm you

But sand through my fingers
Always returns to the waves
And love runs like water
You keep slippin' away

I try
To be the hero of your day
Was I so blind?
I let you slip away

I try
To be the hero of your day
Was I so blind?
I let you slip away

I try
To be the hero of your day
Was I so blind?
I let you slip away

I try
To be the hero of your day
Was I so blind?
I let you slip away
