I always knew you were a rambler Betting on you makes me a gambler But I fell so hard, I ignored your past Tried to tame your heart but you moved too fast You're like a handful of water Fistful of sand The tighter I hold on The more you slip right through my hands You keep on running So why do I even bother Holding on to you Is like a handful of water Like the ocean waves sitting on high tide Boy, you fill me up when you're by my side And then you roll away, you never could stand still This lonely beach knows how I feel You're like a handful of water Fistful of sand The tighter I hold on The more you slip right through my hands You keep on running So why do I even bother Holding on to you Is like a handful of water You know I never try to tie you down But I can't wait forever hoping you'd come back around You keep on running So why do I even bother Holding on to you Is like a handful of water Fistful of sand The tighter I hold on The more you slip right through my hands You keep on running So why do I even bother Holding on to you It's impossible to do Holding on to you Is like a handful of water
