lyrics

She ran the light
In to the night
With the past close on her heels
In a state of mind
To leave it behind
She burned those car wheels

She told me a tale
Of a time spent in jail
With a man who had a face of stone
He would not speak
Labeled a freak
In the corner he sat alone

Wherever she sleeps in the sand
Wherever she sleeps in the sand
Wherever she sleeps in the sand
I'll be there
Be there
Be there

She bought a glass
That could at last
Show the demons underneath
And one by one
Exposed to the sun
The spirits showed her their teeth

But the price was high
And now they wonder why
How empty remains that cell
The girl lost her mind
The man just went blind
But he still sees visions of hell

Wherever she sleeps in the sand
Wherever she sleeps in the sand
Wherever she sleeps in the sand
I'll be there
Be there
Be there

Before she went away
She advised me to pray
I asked who were they
But she would not say
She would not say
She would not say
