I saw my name
Written in the sand
I thought it was the work
Of your hand
When I asked you
You denied
But to this day
I still think you lied
About the names
Written in the sand
In the sand
There was a heart
Carved in the chestnut tree
With initials
That could be you and me
When I told you so
You said the answer my friend is still no
Despite the heart
In the chestnut tree
In the tree
And that was it for you and me
I got a love letter
Written with a purple pen
When I read it
It started all over again
When I called you to say yes
You said no way, it's just another wrong guess
Despite the letter
And the purple pen
Purple pen
Now your name
Is written in the sand
This time it's the work
Of my hand
I put your name
Next to mine
You should see it
It looks just fine
Our names
Written in the sand
Written in the sand
In the Sand
