Your house of sand it won't stand very long

There's no foundation there to build lovin' on

And I stood just about all I can stand

And I can't live in your lonely house of sand



Built a house of love I thought would last forever

But you told me you couldn't love just one man

You took my house of love and tore it all to shambles

And replaced it with your crumbling house of sand

Your house of sand...

[ piano ]

Your house of sand...

No I can't live in your lonely house of sand
