lyrics

Hour Glass
by Doug Midgley and David Waehner

Today you're here
Tomorrow you're gone
Whenever we're apart
It's always too long
 
So let's savor every minute
Every second here tonight
'Cause come the morning
You'll be catching that flight
 
Time spent with you
Moves so fast
Like the sand sifting through
The hourglass
When I'm here without you
The nights won't pass
The sand won't flow through the hourglass
 
Secure in our love
You're my dream of a girl
I'm safe at home while
You fly the world
 
Upon silver wings
You soar through the air
Your essence is with me
You take my heart everywhere
 
Time spent with you
Moves so fast
Like the sand sifting through
The hourglass
When I'm here without you
The nights won't pass
The sand won't flow through the hourglass
 
Here with you
The sand flows through
The hourglass too fast
