Grain Of Sand Tiny Little Sister

Intro: Is it really that long since I held my tiny little sister? Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand? Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand verse 1 Every grain of sand, a day to last forever Every grain of sand, a memory of time Every hope we lost, every bridge we crossed We did it all together Every dream we shared, every day we cared And tried to understand How our lives were planned But still a grain of sand Is it really that long since I held my tiny little sister? Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand? Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand verse 2 In the streets we played the games we learned from others In the streets we played, till Mother called us home And the days were long, like a summer song That never told of winter And the chalk lines ran to a distant land We'd one day come to see And we'd ask the stars Whoever will we be? Is it really that long since I held the tiny little sister? Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand? Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand verse 3 Then we found our men, promised them forever Then we found our sons, promised them the world And we watched them grow, we watched them go As we had left each other And we tried to write, but we never quite Knew what we ought to say Now I send my love This and every day Is it really that long since I held the tiny little sister? Is it really that long since I held her tiny little hand? Here's a card from far away to say how much I've missed her Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand Now we're both on the shores of time, counting every grain of sand
