Sand

Slipping fast through hands

Hands that are heavy and always have held onto me

And time

Time has told its joke

But nobody's laughing

And moments are passing with greed

I'm just a girl alone in a world

I try to break through

And pictures and numbers is all I'm amounting to

I'm just a girl

I don't know the world not like you do

And pictures

And numbers is never enough for you

Oh I needed you

Love

Has a different face

The shadows are longer

The words come out stronger with age

But you

You would barter soul

So don't let them take me

Corrupt and portray me this way

'Cause I'm just a girl alone in a world

I try to break through

And pictures and numbers is all I'm amounting to

I'm just a girl

I don't know the world not like you do

And pictures

And numbers is never enough for you

Oh I needed you

Oh I needed you

I'm just a girl alone in a world

I try to break through

And pictures and numbers is all I'm amounting to

I'm just a girl

I don't know the world not like you do

And pictures

And numbers is never enough for you

Oh I needed you

Oh I needed you
