Sands of Time - Shawn Phillips

And all at once the things you knew

Have all begun to come so true

They come into your life just like a dream

Some say dreams take place at night

I don’t believe that’s exactly right

I think it all depends upon your view of things that come and go

Like lullabies and fallen snow

And lovers all throughout the lands

That walk along the beaches of the shining sands of time

The lullabies of love are pearls

That fill your heart with crystal swirls

They’re going hand in hand to shape your dreams

And some say dreams are not so real

It all depends on what you feel

I think it all depends upon your view of things that come and go

Like lullabies and fallen snow

And lovers all throughout the lands

That walk along the beaches of the glistening sands of time

Love’s a lullaby

Like a melody that comes and goes

Through your mind

Love’s a lullaby

Like a melody that comes and goes

So when you’re lonely in your heart

You bet your life you’d better start

To make the world a place that’s in your dreams

For dreams can be of pastel shades

Or rolling clouds that hide your gaze

They seem to have the means to shape your view of things

That come and go, like lullabies and fallen snow

And lovers all throughout the lands

That walk along the beaches of the shining sands of time

Love’s a lullaby

Like a melody that comes and goes

Love’s a lullaby

Like a melody that comes and goes

Through your mind

Love’s a lullaby

Like a melody that comes and goes

Through your mind
