Grains of Sand
Reflections of Lost Love: Grains of Sand
Lyrics
Standing next to a fallen tree
Reflecting on a fallen tree, a symbol of something lost or broken.
There's a time and a history
Contemplating a specific period and a past full of events.
Someone's name in a lovers heart
A person's name etched in the heart of a lover.
Never destined to be apart
Expressing a love meant to endure, not destined to end.
Thinking about my life and what it means to me
Reflecting on the speaker's life and its personal significance.
Walking the path where lovers used to be
Walking a path once shared by lovers, now separated.
Searching in my reflections it's so hard to see
Searching for self-understanding in reflections, facing difficulty.
Where is the love that I lost so easily
Questioning the whereabouts of love lost too easily.
When the time has come for me to say it's over
Acknowledging the inevitable end and the need to declare it.
Then it's over - like a voice inside of me
Comparing the end to a persistent inner voice.
Though In try to hide the feeling but it's over
Attempting to conceal emotions but failing.
Yeah it's over - never thought our love would be
Surprised that the love that once seemed everlasting is over.
Like grains of sand
Metaphorically describing the love lost as grains of sand.
Falling through my hands
Emphasizing the loss and the slipping away of love.
Where do we go when we've gone to far
Pondering the direction when too far gone, unable to turn back.
And we can't turn back from where we are
Being stuck in a situation with no return to a previous state.
I've been calling in the wind and rain
Calling out in challenging conditions but unable to find the way back.
Can't find my way back to you again
Lost and unable to return to a significant relationship.
Thinking about my life and what it means to me
Reflecting on life's meaning, repeating the theme of lost love.
Walking the path where lovers used to be
Walking the same path where love was once shared.
Searching in my reflections it's so hard to see
Continuing the search for understanding in reflections.
Where is the love that I lost so easily
Reiterating the difficulty in finding the lost love.
When the time has come for me to say it's over
Repeating the acknowledgment of the inevitable end.
Then it's over - like a voice inside of me
Comparing the end to an internal voice, emphasizing finality.
Though In try to hide the feeling but it's over
Struggling to hide emotions as the relationship concludes.
Yeah it's over - never thought our love would be
Expressing surprise at the unexpected end of a once-strong love.
Like grains of sand
Reiterating the metaphor of love slipping away like grains of sand.
Falling through my hands
Reemphasizing the profound loss and the inability to hold onto love.
Like grains of sand
Concluding with a repetition of the metaphor, underscoring the finality.
Falling through my hands
Highlighting the irreversible nature of love slipping away.
