Lost: The Dance in Sand and Sea / The Dance in the Frost

Peter Hammill

[i. The Dance in Sand and Sea]

[Verse 1]
So here we are, or rather, here am I, quite alone
I'm seeing things that were shared before, long ago
My memory stretches and I am dazed, you know I know
How good the time was and how I laughed
Times have changed, now you're far away, I can't complain
I had all my chances but they slipped right through my hands
Like so much sand
I know I'll never dance like I used to

[Verse 2]
I'll just wait 'til day breaks upon the land and the sea
Hoping that I can catch all of the memories
Then I must crawl off upon my way, all of me
Listening hard for the final words
But there are none, the sunrise calls, I've lingered on
Too close for comfort and I don't know quite why
I feel like crying
I know we'll never dance like we used to

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
I look up, I'm almost blinded
By the warmth of what's inside me
And the taste that's in my soul
But I'm dead inside as I stand alone

[ii. The Dance in Frost]

[Intro]
I wore my moods like different sets of clothes
But the right one was never around
And as you left I heard my body ring
And my mind began to howl
It was far too late to contemplate the meaning of it all
You know that I need you, but somehow
I don't think you see my love at all

[Verse 3]
At some point I lost you, I don't know quite how it was
The wonderland lay in a coat of white, chilling frost
I looked around and I found I was truly lost
Without your hand in mine I am dead
Reality is unreal and games I've tried just aren't the same
Without your smile there's just nowhere to hide
Yes, and deep inside
I know I've never cried as I'm about to

[Bridge]
If I could just frame the words
That would make your fire burn
All this water that's now around me could be the love
That should surround me

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Looking out through the tears that blind me
My heart bleeds that you may find me
Or at least that I can
Forget and be numb
But I, I just can't stop, the words still come
I love you
Oh, I love you
I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
