Michael Franks - Hourglass Lyrics

Michael Franks Lyrics

"Hourglass"

Hourglass, remember how I said I'd miss you?
I confess I lied
Hourglass, I couldn't live without you
If I tried, which I
Do not intend to ever try

My hourglass, your sensual geography
I live just to explore
Your present, past, and future incarnations
I adore
The more
We love the more I know we loved before

Luck of such magnitude fills me with gratitude
Some navigator divine
Tied us together in time
Love measures infinity minute by minute

Why, hourglass, do you suppose my arms surround you
So existentially?
Hourglass, I know the sand that flows through you
Is me, I see
The sand that flows through you is me

Why, hourglass, do you suppose my arms surround you
So existentially?
Hourglass, I know the sand that flows through you
Is me, I see
The sand that flows through you is me
