Sandman

(album: Non-Stop - 1968)

There was a time
I knew my mind
And needed nobody else
As strong as stone
I stayed alone
Depending only on myself
And suddenly my eyes
Fell on you
And with a smile
You conquered me

And I became a sandman
Crumbling in you hand
Just a sandman
You turned me into sand
I'm a sandman
But stone in love with you

No ties to bind
The wandering kind
I was a rolling stone
My only prayer
The restless wind
My only debt my own
Then with a word
You blew my mind
And you touched me
With your eyes

And I became a sandman
Crumbling in you hand
Just a sandman
You turned me into sand
I'm a sandman
But stone in love with you
I became a sandman
Crumbling in you hand
Just like a sandman
Turned me into sand
I'm a sandman
But you know I'm stone in love with you
