I always knew you were a rambler

Betting on you makes me a gambler

But i fell so hard i ignored your past

Tried to tame your heart but you moved too fast



You're like a handful of water, fistful of sand

The tighter i hold on, the more you slip right through my hands

You keep on running

So why do i even bother

Holding on to you is like a handful of water



Like the ocean waves sitting on high tide

Boy you fill me up when you're by my side

Then you roll away

You never could stand still

This lonely beach knows how i feel



You're like a handful of water, fistful of sand

The tighter i hold on, the more you slip right though my hands

You keep on running

So why do i even bother

Holding on to you is like a handful of water



You know i never try to tie you down

I can wait forever hoping you'd come back around



You keep on running

So why do i even bother

Holding on to you is like a handful of water, fistful of sand

The tighter i hold on, the more you slip right through my hands

You keep on running

So why do i even bother

Holding on to you, it's impossible to do

Holding on to you is like a handful of water
