My Pride Is like a Castle in the Sand

My pride is like a castle in the sand Washed away by hope and need and pain. You left me holding someone else's hand, And now you stand alone in midnight rain. I want you back again if you want me; I'm ready to rebuild what we have lost, As the owner of a dream swept out to sea Builds back upon the beach despite the cost. My love for you is stronger than the waves, Stronger than the doubts that we may share; If you will say the word that my heart craves, I'll find some flowered field and take you there. And Time will sweep this interlude away; It will barely be a memory someday. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
