Love letters in the sand – a favourite love song

Posted on June 30, 2024 by Admin

This song reminds me of when I was a kid. Every few years went on vacation to a nice warm climate by the sea. It was so exciting to see and hear the waves pounding, and to the smell the lovely sea-breeze. There is nothing quite the same as the “holiday spirit.” No more school, no more worries. We had pocket money every day to enjoy the sun, the surf, the sand and the soda pop pop! The pretty girls were everywhere. At the roller rink, I skated to the song: “Like a tiger” by the fabulous singer Fabian. There are so many things that still burn strongly in my memory from so many years ago. Stop and smell the roses on the way! Don’t worry, be happy! Forget the cares of the world. Just be free! It was so much fun being a kid.

I heard “Love letters in the sand” by Pat Boone, and have a number of versions of him singing this song, where people have added beautiful pictures and videos. This is definitely one of my favourite love songs. So many people love to sing this song, so I have added many other singers, and have tried to do them alphabetically. I hope it makes you happy. This song makes me happy.

  54. We went to a Pat Boone show where he explained that he needed a song for the flip-side of the record he had planned to make, and randomly chose “Love letters in the sand” and it turned out to be one of his biggest hits! I also have a gospel web site where I feature Mr. Pat Boone, if you would like to check it out. It is called countrygospelandbible.
