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.
