I can touch your skin but you aren't there
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
Every morning, I wake up and you are home
And I can hold you in my hands
And squeeze the life back into you
You never turn away or tell me lies
I can hold you in my hands
Frustration burns in me, it's more than I can bear
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
I wanna take you in my fists
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
I am staring straight into your eyes

But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
But there is nothing I can do, you are gone
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
And I can hold you in my hands
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
But you are with some other man
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone
I can hold you in my hands
And I can hold you in my hands
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
Songwriter: Samuel Bingham Endicott
And there is nothing I can do, you are gone
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone
While I am lying next to you
But I can't feel you anymore, you are gone
I can hold you in my hands
But in your eyes I see that I'm alone
