Is it too near when they're nice?
Is that why there's sand in your eyes?
You should look up 'cause they're nothing at all
Blow me…
…and white
Will the settled always have to fly for a home
Is it too near when they're nice?
Is that why there's sand in your eyes?
Don't wait, it's…

…[Verse 1]
And all I am is a man
I want the world in my hands
I hate the beach, but I stand
In California with my toes in the sand…

…that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman…

…the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
[Chorus]
I hear Jerusalem…

…the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand…

…your leather-studded kiss in the sand
I want your love
Love, love, love, I want your love
[Hook x6]
You know that I want you…
…and
I want your love and
[Outro]
I want your drama, the touch of your hand
I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand
I want…
…your drama, the touch of your hand
I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand…

…care for sand
The lights and the fuse might result in a bang, with a bang-go
I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
I don't…
…but you're an explosion (you're dynamite)
Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand
The lights and the fuse might result…

…want your love
Love, love, love, I want your love
I want your drama, the touch of your hand
I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand…
…the touch of your hand
I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand
I want your love
Love, love, love, I want your love
[Pre-Chorus]
You…

…did it for the better of
You don't form in the wet sand
You don't form at all
You don't form in the wet sand
I do Yeah
You don't…
…form in the wet sand
You don't form at all
You don't form in the wet sand
I do…

…in your head
[Chorus]
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never never-land (yeah…

Young woman, share your fire with me
My heart is cold, my soul is free
I am a stranger in your land
A wandering man, call me sand…
…sand
Young woman, share your fire with me
My heart is cold, my soul is free
I am a stranger in your land
Wandering, call me sand…
…sand
Oh sir, my fire is burning high
If thee should stop sir, i would die
The shooting star has crossed my land
Wandering man…

…bed
In your closet, in your head
Exit light
Come on!
Enter night
Grain of sand, yeah!
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Ooo…

It's just the beast under your bed
In your closet, in your head
[Chorus]
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night…

…[Pre-Chorus: Kayo]
All these grains of sand
Keep slipping through our hands
'Cause time waits for no man
We're all just grains of sand…
…us, 'cause
[Pre-Chorus: Kayo]
All these grains of sand
Keep slipping through our hands
'Cause time waits for no man
We're all just…
…grains of sand
[Chorus: Kayo]
We're all sands
We're all sands
We're all sands
We're all sands
[Verse 2: Abstract]
Mortality…

I fell in love with a beautiful boy on the black sand
He took me away I was never the same on the black sand
He said, "Who's…
…gonna love you buried underground?"
Ooh, on the black sand
A mother unwed with a scar down her chest on the black sand
She met her…
…mate on the old army base back in Thailand
Who's gonna love him when all that's lost is found?
Ooh, on the black sand…
