Threw Some Sand

I was walking on the beach in the dew of the dawn;
I bended down grasp some sand in my hand;

And I,  
Threw some?
And I thew some, and I threw some sand;

As I walked down the countryside;
Right out of my left eye I do spy;
A heart of stone;
I've should have known;

And I,
And I threw some sand;
I let it fly out of my hand;
How can you relate you can hardly understand;
I threw some sand;

This I know;
That I can't go;
If I can't find my way!

So you say
And the peace of the Lord is on high;
I bend down and grasp some sand in my hand;
As this melody plays on,
On and on and on this is my  song;
Out my right hand I thew some sand;
As the band played the mandolin;
Walking on the beach;
I felt the inner peace;
While still in my hand I continued to..

Throw some sand;
