One one one grain of sand one one one grain of sand
Just one little grain of sand can change your life and ruin your plans
Undermine your house of love bring it tumbling down
One one one grain of sand
Once upon a mountain top a castle stood
Carved out of rock and stone iron and wood
Then one day a grain of sand grew into an iron latch
Undermined the mountain side and the castle tumbled down
One one one grain of sand
A lover spoke an angry word that led to tears
The tears led to a quarrel love disappeared
That word was like a grain of sand
That undermined the things they've planned
It shook up the house of love and brought it tumbling down
One one one grain of sand
Just one little grain of sand can change your life and ruin your plans
Undermine your house of love bring it tumbling down
One one one grain of sand
One one one grain of sand
