He saw her drift away and going
Saw her footprints on the sand
He had heard about this story
But could have not foreseen its end
She couldn't breathe, she couldn't feel him
Could not see that Promised Land
The sweet hot summer had turn sour
A cold wind blew from hell
Circled news, fateful cries
April tears fell from their eyes
The gift of love was wrapped in pain
Dark clouds turned to rain
She saw him walking on the highway
She watched him take the turn and fade
She had been told that road was bumpy
Still she could not avoid the rail
He couldn't see their paths were crossing
Did not feel dust in the air
The once blues skies were now pale yellow
As whips of lighting shared their glare
Circled news, fateful cries
April tears fell from their eyes
The gift of love was wrapped in pain
Dark clouds turned to rain
Circled news, fateful cries
April tears fell from their eyes
The gift of love was wrapped in pain
Dark clouds turned to rain
