There were shadows on the sand closely mingled Just two lovers by a moonlit sea While I watched I thought of you and I tingled For they kissed the way you did with me
Then the shadows on the sand came much nearer And the moon was like a spotlight then There was one familiar face showing clearer It was you, I couldn't look again
I felt so sad, there you were with someone new I felt so glad, when I found it wasn't true
For the shadows on the sand seemed to break up And I looked around me with a start When the pounding of my heart made me wake up From a dream that nearly broke my heart
