der what you're feeling now
I wonder if you know just how
How hard it was for me to break the tie
I hate it that I'm hurting you
I want you to know I'm hurting too
Even though I was the one to walk away
The winds of change are blowing strong
Maybe what I did was wrong
I've been a gypsy for so long
I heard the chords and I sang the song
And watched our dreams fade away
Like footprints in the sand
The colors in an abalone shell
The cliffs above the sea,
Decays and the games of pool,
I'm growing older with each day
A friend of mine just passed away
What tomorrow holds in store
But as I walk along the beach
Your spirit's never far from reach
As I collect the driftwood and the pieces
I've had my laughs, I've shed my tears
As I stumble through the passing years
But as I walk along the beach
Your spirit's never far from reach
As I collect the driftwood
And the pieces of an abalone shell
