Write your name in the sand at the beach and the water washes it away,
Carve your name on a piece of stone and there it will always stay.
Remember those who cross your path and make a mark upon your heart,
For they are the ones you'll miss the most when soon they do depart.
There is no hurt like loneliness when no one sees your pain,
The only ones you can count on are those who still remain.
So wrap yourself around the stone, a friend you can hold so dear,
For the ones who come and go in your life will never be so near.
