LYRICS
Being one of those grains of sand
I get blown all around the world
And what I make of it
Oh I don’t know
What’s the meaning of it
Oh I don’t know
I’ve been around so many times
That the worlds turning in my mind
What do I think of it
Oh it’s so so
What more can you be than the things they say you’ve been
Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Just say you love me
Just say you love me
I never ever realised
It’s so easy to make you cry
But did I break a bit
Oh I hope no
Have you forgot about it
Oh I hope so
But you never ever wonder why
In every single pair of eyes
There is a hunger in it
Or it’s soul dies
What more can you be than the things they say you’ve been
Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Say you love me all around the world
Stay and hug me all around the world
Be yours a boy or be mine a girl
Just say you love me
Come on now darling, say you love me
Oh yeah, please please say you love me
Come on say you love me
