a jar of sand

i heard the treasure lay beneath the sounds of your little lake

when i left the shore that day it looked like the moon

and the deck on the seas on the storming seas

i can see the southern cross

the southern cross

tide pools big enough

tide pools just deep enough to drown in

lots of drowning girls little hands dived for pearls

to wear in your wedding ring

i know

i know what's buried under the sands

of your little lake

tide pools big enough to drown in

tide pools just deep enough to drown in

i gave you a jar of sand from the coast

i gave you a jar of sand from the coast

i gave you a jar of sand from the coast
