Sand In My Shoes

Dido
Midiart

Two weeks away

feels like the whole world
should've changed
but I'm home now

and things still look the same.
I think I'll leave it
til tomorrow to unpack

try to forget
for one more night
that I'm back in my flat

on the road where the cars
never stop going
through the night

to a life
where I can't watch the sunset.
I don't have time.

I don't have time.
I've still got sand
in my shoes

and I can't shake
the thought of you.
I should get on forget you

but why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye.
Anything else

would've been confused
but I wanna see you again.
Tomorrow's back to work

and down to sanity
should run a bath
and then clear up

the mess I made
before I left here.
Try to remind myself

that I was happy here
before I knew
that I could get

on a plane and fly away
from the road where the cars
never stop going

through the night
to a life
where I can't watch the sunset.

And take my time.
Take all our time.
I've still got sand

in my shoes
and I can't shake
the thought of you.

I should get on forget you
but why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye.

Anything else
would've been confused
but I wanna see you again.

I wanna see you again.
I wanna see you again.
Two weeks away all it takes

to change and turn me around
I've fallen.
I walked away I'd never say

that I wanted to see you again.
I've still got sand
in my shoes

and I can't shake
the thought of you.
I should get on forget you

but why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye.
Anything else

would've been confused
but I wanna see you again.
I've still got sand

in my shoes
and I can't shake
the thought of you.

I should get on forget you
but why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye.

Anything else
would've been confused
but I wanna see you again.

I wanna see you again.
I wanna see you again...
