Sand
Lost and Found Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Walkin' in the desert, feelin' like a stranger in this world
Waiting for an echo, after I gave you my word
You dont need the make up, wish that I could read your mind
Underneath the silence, screaming on the inside

Oooohh maybe I'm just a grain of sand
Oooohh sometimes I wonder if I am
Slipping through your hands

Let me know your secrets, don't leave any piece behind
In your deepest meadow, lookin' for shadows to find
Fallin' like a pebble, thrown into the deepest night
Keep me at a distance, when I try to hold on tight

Oooohh maybe I'm just a grain of sand
Oooohh sometimes I wonder if I am
Slipping through your hands

Oooohh maybe I'm just a grain of sand




Oooohh sometimes I wonder if I am
Slipping through your hands
