Menage a Tune - Wind and sand

from SpinTunes 22 Round 1 by Spintunes

/

lyrics

“The wind was always blowing
and the sand got in my eyes”
He would say that was the reason
that he cried
It wasn’t from the IEDs
or seeing friends go home
with pieces missing, or in body bags
It was the sand
the wind and sand
The desert storm which blew
all of his friends away
It was the sand, the wind and sand
The desert storm which blew
His friends away
~~~
“The wind is always blowing
Full of grit and stench and flies
He would say from in his box
on the street
“And nobody can see me now
I’m always here alone
If I go missing, nobody would cry

I’ll be like sand, like wind blown sand
the desert storm still blows all of my life away
I’ll be like sand, like wind blown sand
The desert storm still blows
My life away
