Hourglass

(album: Evermore - 2016)

Do you know
This fucked up situation I put myself in?
I'm sorry it took so long
But you know I'm coming home

Winter's coming. It's getting cold
Time slips by another week has passed
But you know I'm coming home

I'm far away
And it's been like this for days
But I know I'll be okay
In this hourglass I reside in
Need you to break it to let the light in

Do you know
This fucked up situation I put myself in?
I'm sorry it took so long
But you know I'm coming home
I miss the way you felt
And those nights we'd drive around
Without a place to go. We just knew we weren't alone
But now I'm alone

The days feel longer as I long for you
I got away to combat the distance with time
Now I'm running
Right back to the place that's the same since I've left

Still far away
And it's been like this for days
But I know I'll be okay
In this hourglass I reside in
Need you to break it to let the light in

The distance is daunting
These long drives are keeping me from sleeping
The dashboard, it shakes but doesn't slow our pace
I can't believe that I am still away
I'll play the hand I'm dealt and keep my head on straight
