Scattered in the Sand Songtext

von Colin Hay

Somewhere along the river bend
Maybe we will meet again
Things we thought were there at our command
Scattered in the sand, scattered in the sand

I saw the house on Minerva Lane
The gate was shut with lock and chain
Memories of what once was grand
Scattered in the sand, scattered in the sand

I watched you sleeping as you drifted away
Love's for the keeping I still hear you say

I saw you in my flying dreams
On the bridge from here to there it seems
Only then I spread your ashes where
The ocean meets the land
Scattered in the sand, scattered in the sand

I watched you sleeping as you drifted away
Love's for the keeping I still hear you say
I watched you sleeping as you drifted away
Love's for the keeping
