Love Letters In The Sand

Pat Boone

Words by Nick and Charles Kenny and Music by J. Fred Coots

-the # 11 song in the 1955-1959 rock era

-was # 1 for 7 weeks in 1957

-was also a # 6 hit in 1931 for Ted Black

On a day like today

We passed the time away

Writing love letters in the sand

How you laughed when I cried

Each time I saw the tide

Take our love letters from the sand

You made a vow that you would ever be true

But somehow that vow meant nothing to you

Now my broken heart aches

With every wave that breaks

Over love letters in the sand

Now my broken heart aches

With every wave that breaks

Over love letters in the sand
