Hourglass
written/recorded by James Francis


We let the time pass us by
forgetting why we
even cared for all the ones we love
the times that i've spent awake
and try to forget my mistakes
has left me here wondering why this went so  wrong

another christmas eve
another new years drink
another three hundred sixty five days away
tonight i'll just let it go
and forget what i've known
and lead myself down this long and winding road

i stumble into the door again
because tonight that's ok
i'd like to think i've changed a lot since last year
but it wont matter 'cause we're all that way
you'll ask about my life
and i'll look and say
i've been well
but there's still a hole that i cannot replace
but somewhere deep inside
i've never felt more alive
cause' i have someone that makes it all alright

another christmas eve
another new years drink
another three hundred 65 days away
this time i wont make the same mistakes
and i'll try
this year i'm gonna make it all alright

cause it's all like an hourglass
cause it's all like an hourglass
