Like Sands Through The Hourglass

It's Like Sands Through The Hourglass

 

Like written in the stars it was before we came

Like words etched in stone that will never ever fade

It’s like sands through the hourglass and this lonely summer skies

Things you cannot go back to and yet you cannot move on in life

No matter how hard you try to run away from it or where you hide

This loneliness that stays with you as time passes you by

Like written in the stars it was before we came

Like words etched in stone that will never ever fade

 

 

Like a lost lonely soul on this deserted lonely night

Like two footprints in the sand that got washed away with tide

Like the love you lost and all those lonely nights you cried

Like coming home to a lonely house that feels like the cruel world outside

Knowing things are no longer the same trying hard to hide the pain inside

Once filled with hopes and dreams of love together you shared with pride

Season’s come and seasons go without a trace and pain you cannot hide

You don’t notice a thing and your soul that feels lost and bared at this divide

Like a lost lonely soul on this deserted lonely night

Like two footprints in the sand that just got washed away with tide

 

 

Like written in the stars it was before we came

Like words etched in stone that will never ever fade

It’s like sands through the hourglass and this lonely summer skies

Things you cannot go back to and yet you cannot move on in life

No matter how hard you try to put it behind you or where you hide

This loneliness that stays with you as time passes you by

Like written in the stars it was before we came

Like words etched in stone that will never ever fade
