strand of sand
waves that sigh beneath the hand
i stand the singing seashore
the earth and you are round
i'm always apologizing
will i? do you?

chime, the feet
dry, the sand
clouds collect at sea
start to run
this pink shell
this gray span
and a thousand pardons trail behind

lonely beach
ceaseless wind
still don't understand
run as fast
a missed beat
a quickening
i went to say i love you
but instead i said goodbye
     i want a table
     no just for one
     but i know you do
     i can see some from here
     ok then say for two
     no there's only me
     don't you want my business
     i will never come back here

oh my love
faithless dove
all the love in the world
