Ashes And Sand

These feelings have been building up

Around us for a long time

I remember days when your true lovin' ways

Flowed thru my life just like sweet wine

And lately you've been acting strange

You feel you need a change

There's nothing I can do to make you stay

So if you must say goodbye

This is as good a time as any for me to cry

How can they say that somehow

It all works out for the good

When life can be so cruel

You feel just like a fool, you know you should

What happened to our dreams, all our well laid schemes

We just let them slip right on thru our hands

And all that's left when the fire is gone

Is just some ashes and a little bit of sand.

So naive to think it could be sunshine all the way

Look out here comes a rainy day

You know, I'll always love you deep inside

And girl, I know you never lied to me

Oh there was a time we could fly so high

They couldn't catch us if they tried

They couldn't catch us if they tried
