As I walk on the beach
Where we once walked together
The tips of the waves nip my toes

And the sand is awash
With the cold briny water
High tide will come soon I suppose

I turn ‘round and gaze
At the trail of my steps
And my footprints look lonely because

Long ago yours were right there
Beside mine reminding me
Now, of the way that it was

The ebb and the flow
Of the surf will erase
Any sign of my tracks from the beach

Just like time makes it harder
For me to recall
How we were when we walked within reach

Many a tide
Has come in and gone out
And beguiled us and left us in doubt

Our love was a mountain
Time ground into sand
It’s so strange the way some things turn out
