The Chordettes - Soft Sands lyrics

Now that you're gone I'm alone on the shore You're not walking with me So the song of the sea Isn't sweet anymore But the soft, soft sands Are the same soft sands Where we once had such fun In the warm summer sunshine There is the rock That you dared me to climb Darling, that was the place Where we shared an embrace For the very first time Yes, the rock still stands On the soft soft sands And it's more than my heart can bear Why do I still dream of that storybook ending? When will my heart ever learn? Why do I sit here pretending That you will, that you will, that you will return? Time and again, since you told me goodbye I come back to this spot 'Cause it's all that I got to remember you by And I run my hands through the soft, soft sands Where you once said you'd always care
