Sand In Your Shoes
Dave Nachmanoff

You always were a city kid

Though you were country raised

And back in some forgotten time

We shared the cold north days

But the simple life was not your style,

And you just had to escape

So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands

On Remembrance Day the bands all played,

The bells pealed through the park

And you lay there by the Do Not signs,

And shamed them with your spark

Now winter moans in old men's bones

As the day falls into dark

And it's goodbye to my lady of the islands

It was just like this

Behind the kisses you so soon swept away

Oh I always knew

That some day you'd

Be bound to just get pulled away

The summer sun beats on and on,

The shops swim in the heat

And you're standing by the traffic signs

W ith taxis at your feet

Oh I know that in your city skin

You're feeling more complete

So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands

No I never got the letters

That you said you'd send me

So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands
