Subject: I STILL WRITE YOUR NAME IN THE SAND


I STILL WRITE YOUR NAME IN THE SAND
Recorded by Mac Wiseman
Writer: Not listed

[D] It's been many years since we [D7] were childhood [G] sweethearts
Blissful [D] days that I never can for-[A7] get
And you [D] know I still [D7] love you little [G] darling
Though the [D] years bring me [A7] only re-[D] gret.

Refrain:
Oh! [D] I love you my [D7] darling, how I [G] love you
If I [D] talk, will you try to under-[A7] stand
It's no [D] matter how you [D7] treat me, I [G] love you
And I [D] still write your [A7] name in the [D] sand.

Through the long, lonely years I have loved you
And I've waited, but only in vain
Now I know I've lost you my darling
But I still sing the same old refrain.

Refrain:

Now I know that your heart is for another
And it grieves me more than I can stand
Though I've lost the only one that I care for
I will still write your name in the sand.

Oh! [D] I love you my [D7] darling, how I [G] love you
If I [D] talk, will you try to under-[A7] stand
It's no [D] matter how you [D7] treat me, I [G] love you
And I'll [D] still write you [A7] name in the [D] sand.
