Lyrics
All she really wanted was a friend and a lover,
Someone to depend on when things went wrong.
She opened up her eyes and was able to discover,
After thinking that she was weak, she was the one so strong.
And the rays of the sun sparkled in her eyes
And the love in her heart took him by surprise
And as they walked on together, hand in hand
The waves washed away all their fears
Like the countless grains of sand.
All she really needed was someone to be close to
Late in the evening when her work was done.
After she?d succeeded where she wasn?t supposed to,
After thinking that she was weak, she was the one so strong.
And the rays of the sun sparkled in her hair.
And the love in her heart took him so unaware.
And as they walked on together, hand in hand.
The waves washed away all their fears
The waves washed away all their tears
Like the countless grains of sand.
All she really hoped for was someone she could share with
To make a life together, they could both belong
Someone who would love her and not just to compare with
After thinking that she was weak, she was the one so strong.
And the rays of the sun sparkled in their minds
And the love in their hearts helped them both to unwind
And as they walked on together, hand in hand
The waves washed away all their fears
The waves washed away all their tears
Together on down through the years like the countless grains of sand.
