Image In The Sand

There's a cold wind blowing from above my bed
As I lie here nestled in your arms
And if only for a moment would you let me slip away
You know that I mean you no harm

But if feels like something's different
Maybe there's something wrong
And if we could wash the past away
It wouldn't be too long
Before we recognize the memory
For we've been here before tonight

   Chorus
   If you've gone to a better place
   Better not come back again
   Never figured out how I let you under my skin
   If you've gone to a better place
   Better not come back again
   Maybe I'll start a fire in my hands
   Watch me burn your image in the sand

There's a train whistle blowing from above my bed
As I lie here cradled in your arms
And if only for a moment would you let me slip inside
You know that I mean you no harm
And if nothing lasts forever
I guess some things never change
Don't mean to contradict myself here
But like a master of the game
You sing your own courageous lullaby
And we'll just walk away tonight

Chorus

Maybe I'll start a fire, maybe I'll start a war
And when it all gets blown to hell, at least we'll both be warm
And if you say that you didn't mean it
Do you think I'd still give a damn tonight

Chorus
