Message (lost In The Sand) Lyrics - Singles - The Ripples

Heuser/Pierce 

My love, could you hold up 

For a minute or two 

It seems all of my skipping 

Has untied my shoe 

But the moment these laces 

Find themselves in embraces 

I'll catch up to you 

My dear, just a second 

My legs are sore 

They feel like they'll fall apart 

If pushed one mile more 

But if you're still marching 

All the way to the shore then 

I'll be seeing you real soon 

Darling, my sweet 

You bring only clear skies 

No clouds watch you go 

The sun tears up my eyes 

Your's is the only shadow 

I can see for miles 

But it's not something I can hold 

Wontcha hold me 

Dontcha go 

My baby's flown 

She can't hold me 

Her head has grown 

She's on her own 

Sometimes I get nervous 

Sometimes my smile's fake 

But with you there's something new 

That makes my boots shake 

But all that I had to offer was less than 

You wanted to take 

So I'll just leave you this note
