Saw you on the swings
You were looking at the sky
Turned around and told me
There´s one reason why
You´re the keeper of your dreams
And the dreamer of your sake
What do you dream of when you´re not awake

I walked with you
For hours
You gently held my hand
But our love´s an hourglass
So let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand

Myths and legends stay
But stories fade away
And a story´s what it is
Like what happened yesterday
You said it was OK
In the meadow where we lay
But then you went and cried
And the hourglass went dry

I walked with you
For hours
You gently held my hand
But our love´s an hourglass
So let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand

Then I said we´d keep in thouch
So I garuanteed we must
Gather up the today and let it settle in the dust
Just let one debt be let
You´re a lady I´m a gent
The different ways we went
Were the different ways we went

I walked with you
For hours
You gently held my hand
But our love´s an hourglass
So let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
Let love be the sand
