Lyrics

Another song I wrote recently Which means I have to hit the words Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams So far away, so long ago it seems The memory comes of a distant beach With the pale sand stretching far from reach It was then I found my princess of the sand As I traced the foam with the pebbles beneath my feet I looked behind, and I saw this one so sweet She came to me and I saw in her eyes The heavy toll of a thousand sighs I called her my princess of the sand She stared at me and my mind was in a maze As we moved along in a summer sea-dream haze She moved her mouth but it made no sound The message she brought can never be found But I called her my princess in the sand One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face Then I looked, she'd gone, of her presence, there was no trace Where she went or came from, who can know If she'll ever return to help me know Who she is, my princess of the sand Someday when the summer nights come back I'll go back to the sea, and I'll follow that sand sweat track I'll look around, and I'll hope to find That strange young dream behind I'll call her my princess in the sand And I haven't thought quite the words I start to feel anxious, that's my surrealist song It's crazy, I mean, it's sort of- It's some funny dream
