All the memories, dreams &
kisses
I would bury in the sand
While the ebbing waves of emotion
Forever slipping thru my hands
Plastic faces, letters and pictures
A diamond taken from her hand
She was the one I was going to marry
But said I would'nt understand

I would take these things and put them in a box
Make a wish to set it free and drop it in the dust
And all the things from you that I had come across
Are just the pieces of my heart

All the children, lovers and familys with their castles on the sand
And all my memories buried in their basements
Strangest treasures `neath the land
Perfumed letters written with devotion
Signed from where we used to meet
Filled with promises never meant for keeping

I would take these things and put them in a box
Make a wish and set it free and drop it in the dust
And all the things from you that I had come across
Are just the pieces of a life that I have lost
And I am certain that our love has come to end
Life with you meant more to me, more than just a friend
I loved you once but now I know that I could love again
It's just the pieces of my heart
Before they fall apart

All the memories, the dreams and wishes that I had buried in the sand
Until the day, she would un-earth them
Would forever remain there
