Fistful of Sand

You slipped away like a fistful of sand

But I can't feel you anymore, you are gone
I wanna take you in my fists
I am staring straight into your eyes
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
And I can hold you in my hands
You slipped away like a fistful of sand

But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
But there is nothing I can do, you are gone
I can hold you in my hands
I can hold you in my hands
And I can hold you in my hands
But you are with some other man

Frustration burns in me, it's more than I can bear
I can hold you in my hands
You slipped away like a fistful of sand

But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
And squeeze the life back into you
You've left me with your body in my arms
And there is nothing I can do, you are gone

But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
And I can hold you in my hands
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone
You never turn away or tell me lies
While I am lying next to you
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
I can touch your skin but you aren't there

You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand

You slipped away like a fistful of sand
