Memories aren't what they used to be
High and low, always incomplete
They stare, I don't know how to react
Try smiling for them to see
That I'm happy you are free
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
Stone rise, curtain falls
I am sure that you've seen it all
Christ, you're in for harmony
Clouds they turn, feel you call for me
I'm ashamed I ever thought you were mine
Try smiling for them to see
That I'm happy you are free
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
They speak of a better place
Kingdoms and how they come
Freedom and marching drums
Freedom and marching drums
Freedom and marching drums
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
Saying come down let it be
Grains of sand will never be
Strong enough to make me leave
Strong enough to make me leave
