Alone I stand
as life passes by like shifting sands
feet on the ground
till waves of emotion crash all around
CHORUS
under swells of pain
life slips away
only I remain
V2
look, the moon
beyond the next crest sings my tune
step after step
as I approach him my face is wet
CHORUS
BRIDGE
my hopes and fears abound
until at last I drown
reach out my hand
close my eyes to the moon
and lose track of the sand
CHORUS
-Portia 2004
