Water and sand
Slip straight through your hands
As you’re looking for something
To hold
But it’s hard to hang on
When they play the same song
And so much of your time
Has been sold
But the water and sand
Form a new wondrous land
That, although you can’t hold,
You can lie
If you keep your will strong
And keep moving along
Pretty soon you will find
You can fly
