Run down

D G D G

1. I know you’re feeling sad, don’t you know I’m feeling bad,

D Em A

That we both have to go our separate ways.

D G D G

It was a love we’d known before, but it wasn’t meant for now,

D Em A

I wish that I could help you understand, when I say...

Chorus Windchimes and Sandcastles are the things that I believe in,

G D Em A

The songs they sing and the dreams they bring, can last a whole life through.

G D G D

But songs float off on the wind, and sands wash away with the tide;

G D Em A

Still they live on and on, in our hearts through all time.

2. Well it really seemed so right, on that soft and rainy night,

When we touched each other’s hearts, each other’s souls.

But you have your world and I have mine, and right now the two can’t intertwine,

So we’ll have to be content, with these few moments together. You know that...

Chorus

D G A D

Bridge Well did you ever sit and watch the clouds or listen to the rain.

D G A D

They really have so much to say in their own and quiet way.

G D Bm G

They talk of sailing on the sea, and soaring on the wind.

D Bm Em A Run down

An endless cycle on the earth and back to clouds again.

3. So we’ll meet again on a rainy night, in some lifetime yet to come,

When you can stay with me ’til the misty morning light.

But for now we’ll have to hide our tears, along with all our earthly fears,

Just touch my hand and kiss me, and gently say goodbye. You know that...
