The Hourglass - Jeniferever

A chat and a glass a song and a kiss

Give in for memories

And it will cost you your title

Your home and it's history

The stories written between the walls of it

They won't carry you

But I'll help you write new ones

We were characters in a dream

The reasons to try fell around us like rain

We couldn't tell them apart

So we watched them

On their way down the drain

Then you wake a bit older

A second chance by your side

And you know a bit better

Than to watch as streams and rivers

One day out of hundreds

A night a week history

It did not take more than that

It cost you your title

Your home and family

The years you spent on building it

I helped you remember

What should or shouldn't have been remembered

We were characters in a dream

The reasons to try fell around us like rain

We couldn't tell them apart

So we watched them

On their way down the drain

Then you wake a bit older

A second chance by your side

And you know a bit better

Than to watch as streams and rivers pass

The reasons to try fell around us like rain

We couldn't tell them apart

So we watched them

On their way down the drain

Then you wake a bit older

A second chance by your side

And you know a bit better

Than to watch as streams and rivers pass

We were characters in a dream

The reasons to try fell around us like rain

We couldn't tell them apart

So we watched them

On their way down the drain

Then you wake a bit older

A second chance by your side

And you know a bit better

Than to watch as streams and rivers pass
