The Pebble and the Boy

Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy
Far away in the distance, with the sun in your eyes
Can you see the footprints, that have merged with the sand
And you're trying to find them, you find only dry land

Can you tell the difference, between the pebble and the boy
Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man
If you can, if you can

Can the future, with every step you take
Yet you feel your no further, and your walking away
Can you tell the difference between the pepple and the man
Far away in the ocean, with his back on dry sand

Can you tell the difference, between the pepple and the boy
Can you follow the heartbeats between the boy and the man
If you can, if you can
