It's a lesson too late for the learnin' Made of sand, made of sand In a wink of an eye my soul is turnin' In your hand, in your hand Are you goin' away with no word of fare well Will there be not a trace left behind? I could've loved you better, didn't mean to be unkind You know that was the last thing on my mind As I lie in my bed ev'ry mornin' Without you, without you Each song in my heart dies a-bornin' Without you, without you You've got reason a-plenty for leavin' This I know, this I know For the weeds have been steadily growin' Please, don't go, aw, please, don't go
