Verse
Walking in the desert sand
In a far off land in a place that time forgot.
It once was the Pharaoh?s sand where she took her stand
She stood by her man

Verse
In this foreign land if you can?t make a stand
Blink an eye and the sands are gone
You think you can?t go on to see another dawn
Think of the drifting sands.

Chorus
Learn your lessons well, think of trees that fell learn your lessons from the wind.
Like the Pharaoh's sand it?s a changing land that dictates the fate of man.

Verse
Like the wind that drives and the shifting tide
Sand changes to survive.
Life is strange that way you have to sway
Like the tree bends in the wind.

Repeat Chorus

Verse
If you stand ridged and tall you?re going to fall
And find a bitter end.
Check your steel again, will it bend
And so the lesson ends.

Chorus II
Learn your lessons well, think of trees that fell learn your lessons from the wind.
Like the Pharaoh?s sand it?s a changing land that dictates the fate of man.
Learn your lessons well, think of trees that fell learn your lessons from the wind.
Like the wind that drives, and the shifting tide sand changes to survive.

Outro Tag
Change to survive
Change to survive
Change to survive
Sand will survive
