Sand and Water
Lyrics:Beth Nielsen Chapman Music:Beth Nielsen Chapman
All alone I didn't like the feeling
All alone I sat and cried
All alone I had to find some meaning
In the center of the pain I felt inside
All alone I came into this world
All alone I will someday die
Solid stone is just sand and water, baby
Sand and water, and a million years gone by
I will see you in the light of a thousand suns
I will hear you in the sound of the waves
I will know you when I come, as we all will come
Through the doors beyond the grave
All alone I heal this heart of sorrow
All alone I raise this child
Flesh and bone, he's just
Bursting towards tomorrow
And his laughter fills my world and wears your smile
All alone I came into this world
All alone I will someday die
Solid stone is just sand and water, baby
Sand and water and a million years gone by
**Beth wrote this replacement third verse for Elton John...
All alone I heal this heart of sorrow
I can only live this day
Flesh and bone my life's bursting toward tomorrow
And the love you send my heart still finds it's way
