Like Sand
Silhouette of my younger face
Fitting in someone else's space
Holding on to a friend I knew
An embrace that we both outgrew
What was I thinking, what did I know?
What did I feel, where was I going?
Who did I love, did they love me back?
Was I afraid of what I lacked?
Did I believe in where I was at?
Like sand
Through my hands
Gotta let go of what I'd planned
Oh, how could I know
Tiptoe through the grass
I won't disturb as I pass
Oh no, I'll go slow
Someday I'll be old and gray
If I'm lucky
If I get to stay
On this earth
Long enough to stand
Through the tides as they change the land
Try to leave it up to fate
No need to try so hard, so hard to separate
Who I was back then from who I became
When really it's all the same
Just a pawn in a larger game
Like sand
Through my hands
Gotta let go of what I'd planned
Oh, how could I know
Tiptoe through the grass
I won't disturb as I pass
Oh no, I'll go slow
Like sand
Through my hands
Gotta let go of what I'd planned
Oh, how could I know
Tiptoe through the grass
I won't disturb, as I pass
Oh no, I'll go slow
Fitting in someone else's space
Holding on to a friend I knew
An embrace that we both outgrew
What was I thinking, what did I know?
What did I feel, where was I going?
Who did I love, did they love me back?
Was I afraid of what I lacked?
Did I believe in where I was at?
Like sand
Through my hands
Gotta let go of what I'd planned
Oh, how could I know
Tiptoe through the grass
I won't disturb as I pass
Oh no, I'll go slow
Someday I'll be old and gray
If I'm lucky
If I get to stay
On this earth
Long enough to stand
Through the tides as they change the land
Try to leave it up to fate
No need to try so hard, so hard to separate
Who I was back then from who I became
When really it's all the same
Just a pawn in a larger game
Like sand
Through my hands
Gotta let go of what I'd planned
Oh, how could I know
Tiptoe through the grass
I won't disturb as I pass
Oh no, I'll go slow
Like sand
Through my hands
Gotta let go of what I'd planned
Oh, how could I know
Tiptoe through the grass
I won't disturb, as I pass
Oh no, I'll go slow
