The Box Tops — Sandman lyrics

Lyrics

There was a time
I knew my mind
And needed nobody else
As strong as stone
I stood alone
Depending only on myself
And suddenly my eyes
Fell on you
And with a smile
You conquered me I became a sandman
Crumbling in you hands
Just like a sandman
You turned me into sand
I’m a sandman
But stone in love with you
No ties to bind
The wandering kind
I was a rolling stone
My only friend
The restless wind
My only debt was my own
Then with a word
You blew my mind
And you touched me With your eyes
I became a sandman
Crumbling in you hands
Just like a sandman
You turned me into sand
I’m a sandman
But stone in love with you
I become a sandman
Crumbling in you hands
Just like a sandman
You turn me into sand
I’m a sandman
But you know I’m stone in love with you
