"Sands of Time" - Lyrics and Music

In the beginning it was fine
I was yours and you were mine
Every day was Valentines
Kisses, red roses, chocolate and wine
In a garden full of flowers
We would sit there talking for hours
About how things would be
A fairy tale future
Just you and me

Driftin' through the world
Without a care me and my girl
Inseperably entwined
Pure as the thoughts in a newborns mind
Unaware of the time
And the scattered seeds, sown in our minds
That way down the line
Would grow into trees and change our lives

A law unto ourselves
Blissfully unaware of the gathering clouds
We didn't here a sound
As they dropped their rain onto the ground
Not sensing the cold
As the waters rose around our toes
Not feeling the change
As life's currents pulled us in separate ways

Looking back now
It's easier to see
The unstoppable power
That drove a wedge between you and me
If only we'd seen
That we were never meant to be
We would've made more of the space
And the time that we had, that can't be replaced.
