A dream in the sand

I'm not afraid to be powerless,
If it means I could be with you,
I'm not afraid of sacrifice,
If it means I could have you.

I'm not afraid of you hurting me,
If it means I could live with your pain,
maybe for a day, You would be okay.

I just want to know you,
And take away your pain,
I know it can't be easy,
Pretending to live in grace.

A god that will never save us,
In a world full of hate.

But I don't want to feel powerless,
I believe we can change,
We can become anything we choose to embrace.

I only want to hold you,
I only want to be,
Just a ear and some arms,
A lover and friend, a beautiful heart,
A dream in the sand.
