Draw Another Line

Draw another line in the sand

Say come to here but no further

As if the sand was at your command

And didn't blow always

Despite the anthem played by your band

Despite the colours flying from the flagpole

Very soon you'll overplay your hand

And the sand won't stay

As it drifts around

High above the ground

It's the only thing you can see

But come the next new moon

There's a new sand dune

Where your line used to be

Make another final demand

Bang your fist down hard on the table

But you don't have the strength in your hand

That you used to do

As it drifts around

High above the ground

It's the only thing you can see

But come the next new moon

There's a new sand dune

Where your line used to be

Draw another line in the sand

Say come to here but no further

As if the sand was at your command

And didn't blow always
