And the Waves on the Shore (Sweep Your Footprints Away) Lyrics

And you find someone with a voice like honey

With eyes that could easily drown you

And a body you can't take your eyes off

With a soul you just want to merge with

And you can't find the words to describe it

But you feel so alive when you're with them

And it causes you pain when they're leaving

But you know you will see them tomorrow

Can you grasp what it is that your wanting

And hold on to the feeling forever

And the waves on the shore sweep your footprints away

And the waves on the shore sweep your footprints away

Do you cherish the life that your leading

Or are you stuck down there in the gutter

Do you feel like your wading through treacle

And the hands on the clock are still moving

But you can't lift your eyes from the grindstone

And you forget just what really matters

To build up something they'll remember

So you'll go smell the roses tomorrow

Can you make the world in your image

And make sure that it never changes

And the waves on the shore sweep your footprints away

And the waves on the shore sweep your footprints away
