Sands And the Glass Sözleri

by Robin Williamson

Running from home full of hope

Green as dope and living on our dreams

How long ago it seems since we believed in magic

Finding love so easily then, seeking to be free as the wind

Laughing with our friends beyond the tragic

Chorus:

I think we were duped

But I don't forget

Things that were true

I believe them yet

I've seen a new day

Beyond the sad sunset

It looks so fine

Let it shine in the end

Let it shine

Sweet ladies gave me brown bread and cheese

Breezes from the sea flew blue birds

Death was absurd when I was flying

Hearts of gold and old stories

Never told a lying word

There was no flaw till I saw you crying

Someone could not sell us cars

Saw us staring at the stars and sold us sleep

Drowned us deep in limbo

Some of us died, some got by, here am I still singing on a stage

I'll never turn my cheek but I'll turn the page

And watch the way the wind blows
