All of a sudden, suddenly   All of a sudden is way too soon   Suddenly, my sunburned knees   Are planted in the ground      What’s the hurry? Come on, baby   Stay a little longer cause I   Don’t want to hear maybes   Next time you come around      And the last time that I’ll see the light of day   Is the last time that you go away   And the last letter that I receive    Is that the last time I’ll believe   In all those magic fantasies    I believed in    Sitting in the sandbox?   In the sandbox      Begging for you to choose   Another path to take   I tell you that I love you   That you’re making a mistake      Beggars can’t be choosers   Now you leave me, I’m a loser   How far since the day you met me   I’ve come to the day you left me   Baby, please don’t go quite yet   I haven’t said all that needs to be said      If you go, please just know   The scars you’ve left, the pain you’ve left me with   But just know, friend or foe   I don’t want to be either, cause that means you mean something to me   And if I lie to myself and I keep living that lie   Maybe that lie will come alive   And now I have to ask      Will the last time that I see the light of day   be the last time that you go away?   And the last letter that I receive    Is that the last time I’ll believe   In all those magic fantasies    I believed in    Sitting in the sandbox?   In the sandbox      And the moment that my fist breaks through the plaster   Say goodbye to valentines and happily ever afters    Say goodbye to dozens of roses, they’re now potpourri Shredded to pieces like scented confetti   I’m better off with those fantasies    I believed in    Sitting in the sandbox    In the sandbox      On a merry go round   With the merry scratched out
