Pocketful of Sand

See the light I can see
Be the one I can't be
Hold it all in your dreams
And keep it safe

I still remember the way
You'd light the sky night or day
And I believed what you'd say
To keep it safe

So was this love or another guise for everybody

You carry your pocketful of sand
Hold it tight and not slip through your hand
Half for now and half for later
Remind yourself of what you gave up
You carry your pocketful of sand
Reach inside and hold out your hand
Feel it fall through your fingers
A waterfall of sweet reminders

See the light I can see
And all the space in between
Hold it close in your dreams
And keep it safe

So was this love or another guise for everybody

You carry your pocketful of sand
Hold it tight and not slip through your hand
Half for now and half for later
Remind yourself of what you gave up
You carry your pocketful of sand
Reach inside and hold out your hand
Feel it fall through your fingers
A waterfall of sweet reminders

You carry your pocketful of sand
Hold it tight and not slip through your hand
Now feel it fall through your fingers
A waterfall of sweet reminders
