Sands of Time

Sands of time, slipping through my fingers
Your sweet memories, I let those linger
I try to rhyme your heartbeats to mine
In this perfect morning and sweet sunshine

But waves are hitting hard and strong
Forcing me to hold back my song
Those glistening boats give me hope
This troubled sea, I know we can cope

The gentle breeze across my face
Reminds me of your special ways
I look around and see golden sand
I wish we were walking hand in hand

It's only a matter of time I know
Together we'd need no sun to glow
Reach out to me and make me whole
To you I have opened my heart and soul.
