Fill your hands with grains of sand
In the rocks you’ll see the clocks
Of times that pass
The good the bad
Your life’s a life you’ll wish you had
Thought I could hunt
I could be brave
Nothing to save you, nothing to save
The good, the bad
The times you’ve had
Are stops upon your lily pad
On your lily pad
Go over tides that pull you under
Hold on to daylight and to thunder
When you take on lows
Let the rain flow
You gotta take, you gotta take, you gotta take
On every wave
Take on every wave
It hurts to think of what’s to come
When I no longer know this place
And all I hear are fading drums
And I cannot recall your face
I’ll meet you in the sleepless garden c
Close your eyes and see
A future you, remembering how it felt
To kiss tonight’s version of me
Of me
Go over tides that pull you under
Hold on to daylight and to thunder
When you take on lows
Let the rain flow
You gotta take, you gotta take, you gotta take
On every wave
I promise
I promise
It’s not what you say
No favors
No secrets
None coming my way
And after all this
You still had to pay
Go over tides that pull you under
Hold on to daylight and to thunder
When you take on lows
Let the rain flow
You gotta take, you gotta take, you gotta take
On every wave
