Lyrics:

Broken pieces everywhere
I still my mind and found I care
Running on the morning tide
Something you would say to me
We drank the waters of delight
We played the games of wrong and right
Did we understand they're just footsteps in the sand?

Oh long dreaming, find my tears
I could love you all the years

There are times like today
The wind will blow a gentle way
Mark it down in frozen glass
Lied to me that I could win
So many ways to share a love
With words and touch we promised much
Do we understand the footsteps in the sand?

I believe, I believe too easily
I believe, I believe too easily

Oh long dreaming, find my tears
I could love you all the years

Here I stand still the same
I dust the showcase, change the name
Hard to know who plays the fool
Never looking back on years
I wonder now which way to face
I catch a vision of this place
Did we understand those footsteps in the sand?
