Hourglass

Sometimes I feel
on shaky ground
I feel much better
When you are around
And the Earth, how it shakes beneath my feet
It's hard to walk around
On one simple street
You and me
The Earth, the sky, and the sea around the sun, today
Catching sand from the hourglass
Funny how it slips away
These clothes, they don't fit me just right
Something's astray
The common thread's all frayed
And I used to sing dance and clown
As I do now
When you are around
All caught up
In what has come to pass, will it last
Or fade away?
Catching sand from the hourglass
Funny how it slips away
Catching sand from the hourglass
Funny how it slips away
Funny how it slips away
Funny how it slips away
It's true, it's true I must confess
The cheap shots to your tenderness
Can you show me where it hurts?
And your eyes look deep into my soul
Stop me in my tracks
Knowing where to go
You and me
The Earth, the sky and the sea around the sun
If only for today
We'll catch the sand from the hourglass
Never let it slip away
We'll catch the sand from the hourglass
Never let it slip away
We'll catch the sand from the hourglass
Never let it slip away
We'll catch the sand from the hourglass
Never let it slip away
