Sand

Jabberwocky

If I had money

And you were my girl

Lord you’d be wearing

Diamond and pearl.

 

But I ain’t got no money

Not even a dime

And all I can give you

Is my precious time.

 

Time is forever

And time it is brief

Time is a healer

And time is a thief

 

So walk in the garden

And come take my hand;

Well spent the cost

Of each grain of sand.
