(Lyrics by james seals, bob gundry and kelley mckinney; music by james seals and bob gundry, 1976)
From the album get closer (1976)

Sand, the ocean breezes blow. red in the sun, red so long ago
Torn by the waves, blown by the wind
Gone like the tide, until we meet again, again, again

We are a dream, a vision, a story yet to be told
We are a theme, love was the writer, red long ago
You were the sea and I was the river, flowing to you
Hoping that you might still remember, red long ago
You were my wings for I was, just learning to fly
Red was the sky, love was the reason we went too high
We shared the joy now but, we feel the pain
Love was the valley we lost our way in, red long ago

Sand, the ocean breezes blow. red in the sun, red so long ago
Memories of silver, heartaches of gold
These are the treasures of red long ago, long ago, long ago

Ooooo, you were the sea and I was the river, flowing to you
Knowing that you might still remember, red long ago
