Flowers In the Sand

Time’s like water – it runs through your hands Before you know it, you’re an old man Don’t be one to question how you lived out life’s demands While missing the flowers in the sand Tell her that you love her Don’t let another day go by Take them by the river Teach them how to fly Time’s like a river that’s flowing fast and clear We will never again be here It’s so easy to live by fear as time slips through the years Grab hold of today and keep it near Show her that you see her Don’t let another day go by Take them by the river Teach them how to cry Don’t tell me that you wish you could have been there Just be here now Don’t let another day go by wishing Don’t let the sun go down Tell her that you love her Don’t let another day go by Take them by the river Don’t ever wonder why
