I've seen love fade from a lovers eyes
Saw a ship sailed away on an evening tide
As the sun was slowly going down
I searched my heart and I wondered why

Does everything I love slip through my hands
Like water, like sand
It reminds me of the waves
They crash and roll away

Farewell to the setting sun
Goodbye just seems to come
For everything and everyone that i hold dear
Lord knows that i've prayed and cried
Before i see the other side
I hope i'll find the answer and it's finally clear
Before it all just disappears

Like a drop of rain falling in the sea
Or an ocean full of memories
I've seen this life take what I love
Have the wind blow it so far from me

Like everything I love slips through my hands
Like water, like sand
It reminds me of the waves
They crash and roll away

And they just disappear

Farewell to the setting sun
Goodbye just seems to come
For everything and everyone that i hold dear
Lord knows that i've prayed and cried
Before i see the other side
I hope i'll find the answer and it's finally clear
Before it all just disappears

We've all faced an angry sky
With no safe place we could hide
Watch the dark clouds turn to light
With all our fears
From all these years

They just disappear
They just disappear
I just disappear
