David Gray Ashes in the Wind Lyrics:
Ashes in the Wind
i hold you close in my arms
as we take our last stroll
down the beach
TOGETHER
with seagulls screeching overhead
and waves crashing
and thrashing towards the shore
my eyes well-up
and tears stream down my face
an overwhelming sense of sadness
takes hold of me
and as we climb the
mountainous sands
i think about the sound
of your laughter
i remember our first
piggyback ride
and the first time that we danced
TOGETHER
i wonder why the more i learn

the more i realize
how much i don't know

as we reach the top of the cliff
i stand still
mesmerized by the beauty
of the deep blue sea
and calmed by the peaceful
breaking waves
as i open your urn

my hands shake
with sadness and pain
i remove your ashes from
your temporary home
and toss them into the wind

ashes in the wind
ashes in the wind
then i bury your urn
in one of our favorite nooks
deep in the sand on the cliff
so that traces of you
will forever be
part of La Jolla Beach
then i trudge back to
the shore below
ALL ALONE
then i realize that your ashes
are swirling all around me
blowing in the wind
then i feel joy in knowing
that you are free
from your earthly shell
and that you will find me
when my time comes
until then
i know that our love will last
as we move from this
life to the next
and so i wait
to see your face once again
and when i do
i will remember that
TOGETHER
our love is stronger
than a waking giant
and it will endure
until the end of time
ashes in the wind
ashes in the wind
