Elliott on the Beach
Sweet Child of Mine
I love you so
Such hope and happiness
I have for you
My heart is bursting with it
Yet
Back turned to the sun you worry
The sands of this place
Have drifted between us
I reach into this heart to find the love I hold for you
But hands come out empty
I discover I am naked and alone.
