Sands of time

from Honey (2008) by Utopia Now

/

lyrics

Every little grain
a piece of yesterday,
a particle of tomorrow.
But moments never linger,
they run through my fingers
and die on the pile below,
implying a point in time
when a terrible change of mind
leaves me with an empty upper glass.

Chorus:
If there was one thing I could wish for,
it would be an unlimited store
of precious sands of time, so our love could never die.

Most frightening of all,
the sound of time's free fall,
the whispering of lurking loss.
The salt of our lives
is change but at times
it comes at an unbearable cost,
for example losing you
when the last granule has run through.
"Linger on, thou art so fair!"

Chorus
