Em C Am C
Here I stand amid the roar
Em C Am C
Of a surf tormented shore
Em C Am C
And I hold within my hand
Em C Am C
Grains of a golden sand
Em C Am C
How few how yet they creep
Em C Am C
Through my fingers to the deep
[Chorus]
Em C Am C
While I weep... x2
[Verse 2]
Em C Am C
Oh God can I not grasp
Em C Am C
One with a tighter clasp
Em C Am C
Oh God can I not save
Em C Am C
One from the pitiless wave
Em C Am C
Is all that we see or seem
Em C Am C
But a dream within a dream
[Chorus]
Em C Am C
But a dream... x4
[Instrumental]
Em C Am C x10
[Verse 3]
Em C Am C
Take this kiss upon the brow
Em C Am C
And in parting from you now
Em C Am C
Is all that we see or seem
Em C Am C
But a dream within a dream
[Chorus]
Em C Am C
But a dream... x8
