The Sands of Time     

I count the sands of time

It slowly trickles down

Grain by grain….

As time goes by…

I live for today

I long for tomorrow

I won’t look back

As time goes by…

I see a familiar face

I remember your name

You will become a stranger

As time goes by…

You call out my name

I smile at you

I will walk on by

As time goes by…

You will mean no more

I have broken free

The chains that tied

As time goes by…

I will float so freely

To where the wind blows

Far, far away

As time goes by…
