lyrics

Time is like the drifting sand
Makes no difference it’s gonna flow
You can’t hold it
It slips through your hands

And you and I we’ve come so far
From word of mouth and heart to heart
Though our lives may follow
Different paths

I’ve heard all my friends are going to be strangers
In the end it’s all a passing phase
But through the years you’re here within my heart
Across the miles I know you’re still my northern star


There are roads you travel on your own
Lessons you must learn alone
But we all still need a place
We can call home

Play to win, odds on you’ll lose
Between laughter and them walkin’ blues
The love you make
Could be the only thing you ever really know

They say all things must pass and our time is but a season
We barely leave a shadow on the page
But if love is still the measure of our reason
I believe that when we pass it will remain love will remain
Inst / repeat refrain

Time is like the drifting sand
