------------------------------------------

There were shadows on the sand closely mingled, just two lovers by a moonlit sea,

While I watched I thought of you and I tingled, for they kissed the way you did with me.

Then the shadows on the sand came much nearer, and the moon was like a spotlight then,

There was one familiar face showing clearer, it was you, I couldn't look again.

I felt so sad, there you were with someone new, I felt so glad, when I found it wasn't true.

For the shadows on the sand seemed to break up, and I looked around me with a start,

When the pounding of my heart made me wake up

From a dream that nearly broke my heart.
