Woorden: Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers. Hourglass.

Momentito, why don't you stay

Bright little bird don't fly away so fast

Turn the hourglass over



I ask not for a century

No eon or immortality

Turn the hourglass over?



Row, row, row your boat

Gently down the stream

When will this current find the ocean?

Where will this river meet the sea?

And I don't know why we float

But I like this buoyancy

Each moment lent, I already spent now

My favorite currency



Turn the hourglass over

Turn the hourglass over again



Sand is rushing through the glass

So busy turning now into the past so fast

Turn the hourglass over



As I step out upon the plain

Why must the horses run away again

Turn the hourglass over



Turn the hourglass over

Turn the hourglass over again



As darkness whispers in our ear

Let we loiter in the light a little longer here

Turn the hourglass over
