Well you can take a whole lotta sand
And build a castle on the beach
And though you mold it and you plan
Still you've got nothing in your reach
One little slip and it tumbles down
One wrong step and it crumbles all around
Like a house without love, that's sure to fall apart
A house of sand is an empty work of art
Well you can build a tower of clay
But if you ask my advice
Well it's worthless passe
It's got no heart it's cold as ice
One little slip and it tumbles down
One wrong step and it crumbles all around
Like a house without love, that's sure to fall apart
A house of sand is an empty work of art
One little slip and it tumbles down
One wrong step and it crumbles all around
Like a house without love, that's sure to fall apart
A house of sand is an empty work of art
A house of sand is an empty work of art
A house of sand is an empty work of art
How Can You Lose What You Never Had
(Weisman / Wayne)
(Recorded for the film "Clambake")
Ahha how can you lose what you never had?
I tell myself when I'm feelin' sad
You don't have the right to cry
You believed your own lie
It's your fault because
You thought that she was yours
Think it over once, think it over twice
I wish I could take my own advice
I know I should be glad, why does it hurt so bad?
How can you lose what you never had?
(Alright)
One little slip and it tumbles down
One wrong step and it crumbles all around
Like a house without love, that's sure to fall apart
A house of sand is an empty work of art
How can you lose what you never had
