Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We tied the load at dawn
To a camel’s tired hum
Faded maps in my sleeve
Edges soft as old thumbs
Your eyes read the sky
Like it owed you a name
And the dunes kept moving
Like they knew our shame
[Pre-Chorus]
Then the horizon bent
Then the heat went thin
A green line trembled
Just beyond the skin
You said, “Keep walking”
Like a prayer in stone
And the sand rose softly
Round every bone
[Chorus]
The sand remembered
What the wind forgot
The sand remembered
And we followed that thought
Brush away one grain
And another century exhales
Brush away one grain
And the old trail wakes
[Verse 2]
A torn blue corner
Pinned in my palm
Said there was water
Under the calm
We crossed a ridge of glass
Through the burning noon
You laughed at the mirage
Like it sang too soon
[Pre-Chorus]
Then the air turned cool
And the light went bright
A hidden basin opened
Out of the white
You touched the reeds
Like they might break free
And the oasis breathed
Right back at me
[Chorus]
The sand remembered
What the wind forgot
The sand remembered
And we followed that thought
Brush away one grain
And another century exhales
Brush away one grain
And the old trail wakes
[Bridge]
If we are dust
We are mapped by loss
If we are lost
We are found by cross
Of moon on stone
Of hand in hand
Of every footstep
Learning the land
[Final Chorus]
The sand remembered
What the wind forgot
The sand remembered
And we followed that thought
Brush away one grain
And another century exhales
Brush away one grain
And the old trail wakes
The sand remembered
What the wind forgot
The sand remembered
And it led us home
