All the Sand in all the Sea

All your precious souls

Have been bought and sold

For bargain basement lows

To common criminals

So you're having visions

Adverse flying conditions

Overseas transmissions

To anyone who will listen

You're waiting for the drums to kick in

You want to free your earthbound limbs

I'm gonna count to three

Then you are leaving here with me

Are we wasting all our precious time?

Chasing dollars, chasing dimes

German, English, Japanese

All the sand in all the seas

It's all in place, it's all laid out

And as we speak it's going down

Oh, don't forget me regretfully

Here's the part that always gets me

You float across the room

Your lips are in full bloom

Pedals fall from your mouth

Have you found me out?

You've been here before

Along the civil war

I'll wait religiously

Don't forget that you came here with me

Are we wasting all our precious time?

Chasing dollars, chasing dimes

German, English, Japanese

All the sand in all the seas

It's all in place, it's all laid out

And as we speak it's going down

Oh, don't forget me regretfully

Here's the part that always gets me
