Lyrics Sands of Time - Shawn Phillips

And all at once the things you knew
Have all begun to come so true
They come into your life just like a dream
Some say dreams take place at night
I don't believe that's exactly right
I think it all depends upon your view of things that come and go
Like lullabies and fallen snow
And lovers all throughout the lands
That walk along the beaches of the shining sands of time

The lullabies of love are pearls
That fill your heart with crystal swirls
They're going hand in hand to shape your dreams
And some say dreams are not so real
It all depends on what you feel
I think it all depends upon your view of things that come and go
Like lullabies and fallen snow
And lovers all throughout the lands
That walk along the beaches of the glistening sands of time

Love's a lullaby
Like a melody that comes and goes
Through your mind
Love's a lullaby
Like a melody that comes and goes

So when you're lonely in your heart
You bet your life you'd better start
To make the world a place that's in your dreams
For dreams can be of pastel shades
Or rolling clouds that hide your gaze
They seem to have the means to shape your view of things
That come and go, like lullabies and fallen snow
And lovers all throughout the lands
That walk along the beaches of the shining sands of time

Love's a lullaby
Like a melody that comes and goes
Love's a lullaby
Like a melody that comes and goes
Through your mind
Love's a lullaby
Like a melody that comes and goes
Through your mind
