Story behind the song
My first experience with the Franciscan University of Steubenville as a student was actually overseas at their Austria campus. I spent one weekend in a small Spanish beach town named Sitges, about a half hour south of Barcelona. The sunsets there were amazing -- an example of God's amazing handiwork seen in so many ways in our natural environment. My friend Jim Moran came up with the idea of the man and woman on the beach together to accentuate the theme.
Lyrics
La la la la la la la. (x3) Looking at the sun as she falls from the sky, Lookin' up as she wanders in the night. I'm so grateful for the Grace that brought you here, Brought you here with me today. Now I see the Spanish sunset in your eyes, I see the glowing glimpse of teardrops. I wonder, "Why now are you cryin'?" The Glory of His hand is over you right now. I watch the Spanish sun caress your lovely hair. Waves crashing on your ankles at your feet. Watching you, so pretty standing there, As God above turns day into night. Now another Spanish sun sets in the night, Just a glimpse of our Creator's love and might. Now another Spanish sun sets in the night, Just a glimpse of our Creator's love and might. La la la la la la la. La la la la la la la. There I sit on Spanish beaches next to you, I hold the sands in my hand and wonder who. I rise up and realize that God was once this way. He was once a man that walked upon this earth. All he saw was hurt and anguish and pain. Then He brought us life and gave us joy again. And when the light fades away, I drop to my knees and pray that you and I will share eternity in heaven someday. Seeing things that God created, Holding sand drops in my hand. Realizing that I'm one of them. We're all dust and unto dust He has created us.
