Hourglass

(album: High Tide - 2017)

Long ago
When I was young, running through the fields, I had my hopes
Told my parents, don't want to grow old
Oh, they smiled and said, child that's the only road for
Got to go
Heard a crash
When our hearts broke

And I thought I better get rolling, I have to
Like an hourglass
The sun might be setting here really soon
I could make my way
Right over the moon
If I do what I have to do, better get rolling

Come one, Lorie
Come move your feet
Running through the fields, come on, let's go
You and Po
Don't want to grow old
Come find me down that only road for
Got to go
Once the truth
In our hearts spoke

Come I better get rolling, I have to
Like an hourglass
The sun might be setting here really soon
I could make my way
Right over the moon
If I do what I have to do, better get rolling

But I get low
I get easily burnt out
What I know
That we're leaving all too soon

Oh, I better get rolling, I have to
Like an hourglass
The sun might be setting here really soon
I could make my way
Right over the moon
If I do what I have to do, better get rolling
