Lyrics Michael Franks – Hourglass
Text:
Hourglass, remember how I said I’d miss you?
I confess I lied
Hourglass, I couldn’t live without you
If I tried, which I
Do not intend to ever try
My hourglass, your sensual geography
I live just to explore
Your present, past, and future incarnations
I adore
The more
We love the more I know we loved before
Luck of such magnitude fills me with gratitude
Some navigator divine
Tied us together in time
Love measures infinity minute by minute
Why, hourglass, do you suppose my arms surround you
So existentially?
Hourglass, I know the sand that flows through you
Is me, I see
The sand that flows through you is me
Why, hourglass, do you suppose my arms surround you
So existentially?
Hourglass, I know the sand that flows through you
Is me, I see
The sand that flows through you is me
