Sands Of Time

Life's too long to live, but too short to die

When everything I say, takes a piece inside

All the world's awake, but I have closed my eyes

I wish it all away, but nothing's right

In the sands of time...

The sands of time...

It's all lost in the sands of time

(The sands of time)

The sands of time

Tears run down my cheek, as I look away

This is all I've known, my guilt and my dismay

I don't have the strength, I don't know what to say

Here is where I stand, alone and afraid

In the sands of time...

The sands of time...

It's all lost in the sands of time

(The sands of time)

The sands of time

The sands of times run out, and I'm the one to lose

I heard them talk about, the heart-breaking news

I don't know where to go, I don't know what to do

Now that God took away, what I had in you

In the sands of time...

The sands of time...

It's all lost in the sands of time

(The sands of time)

The sands of time

I sold you my soul, I gave you my life

Who wants death, when living's half the price

An ironic phrase, echoed in my mind

Until it's all lost, in the sands of time
