"Love Letters in the Sand" is a popular song first published in 1931. The music was written by J. Fred Coots and the lyrics by Nick Kenny and Charles Kenny. The song was "inspired" by an 1881 composition, "The Spanish Cavalier" by William D. Hendrickson. Ted Black's orchestra had the first major hit.

On a day like today

We pass the time away

Writing love letters in the sand

How you laughed when I cried

Each time I saw the tide

Take our love letters from the sand

You made a vow that you would ever be true

But somehow that vow meant nothing to you

Now my broken heart aches

With every wave that breaks

Over love letters in the sand

[Whistlin']

Now my broken heart aches

With every wave that breaks

Over love letters in the sand
