Tom MacDonald, Stevie Ross - Hourglass lyrics

With all this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fit it in an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love
Time keeps goin' and goin'
But it won't wait for us

I've been livin' in a minute
But it goes quick
I've been livin' on the edge of my own cliff
I've been thinkin' 'bout the end
And I know that i will fade away eventually
Like a glow stick
I just hope that when I go it isn't slow
And everybody that I love already knows
Don't need to clarify time stands
Still like it's terrified
And I'm just tryna feel
Somethin' like I'm paralyzed
I've been havin' flashbacks
Peoplе that I laughed at
Thought they didn't get it all along
But rеally they all knew
The only way to relive what you been before
Is if you dream about it or you
Get caught in a deja vu
No love found means no love lost
I tried to learn about it
But it can't be taught
Spendin' all my time reflectin' on the past
Realizin' everything can fit
Inside an hourglass

With all this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fit it in an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love
Time keeps goin' and goin'
But it won't wait for us
(It won't wait for us, yeah)

Happy endin's only happen in the movies
I been up and down that road a million times
I feel stupid i keep lookin' at my watch
But I really need a map
'Cause I'm lost inside the moment
I need to find a way back
I keep on gettin' older
My heart heavy as a rock
And the devil on my shoulder and
He's lookin' at the clock
I've been tryna see the future through
The rain and the fog
Lookin' out a window that I
Made from crystal balls
Tryna read between the lines that
I have on my palms
I thought it would be easy
But I guess that I was wrong
It's the story of a boy and a girl
With all the time we're spendin' here
We could've bought the world

With all this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fit it in an hourglass
(fit it in an hourglass)
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love
Time keeps goin' and goin'
But it won't wait for us

(No, it won't wait for us)
So, don't trip when it runs out
(‘Cause it won't wait for us)
If you ask it to slow down
(it won't wait for us)
If you need a second to catch your breath
You should probly do it 'fore
You're in over your head
You never know you're livin' 'til
You love someone to death!

With all this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fit it in an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love
Time keeps goin' and goin'
But it won't wait for us
