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
