It's a lesson too late for the learning Made of sand, made of sand In the wink of an eye my soul is turning In your hand, in your hand Are you goin' away with no word of farewell Will there be not a trace left behind? Could have loved you better Didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind As we walk, all my thoughts they are tumblin' Round and round, round and round Underneath our feet the subway's rumblin' Under ground, under ground Are you goin' away with no word of farewell Will there be not a trace left behind? Could have loved you better Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind You got reasons a plenty for goin' This I know, this I know For the weeds have been steadily growing Please don't go, please don't go Are you goin' away with no word of farewell Will there be not a trace left behind? Could have loved you better Didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind Goin' away with no word of farewell Will there be not a trace left behind? Could have loved you better I didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind You know that was the last thing on my mind
