Glued Down Hourglass
Tell me you love me
You don't know what tomorrow brings
The sun isn't free
So treasure the little things
Find the light
At the end of the tunnel
Don't take flight
Your happiness, don't pummel
You can't dwell on the past
Keep your eyes straight
Moments will pass you fast
Just believe in fate
The hourglass is glued down
That's a fact
Don't frown
Keep that smile in tact
Time is permanent
If you're alive
You're fortunate
But you need to thrive
