Hourglass Songtext
von Alice Chater

Hourglass, hourglass
(Hourglass, hourglass)
(Hourglass, hourglass)
(Hourglass, hourglass)

There′s a shadow lying down where you used to be
And the windowpane's crying like a storm in the street

Don′t make it so hard
Make it easy not to behave, you know I don't wanna behave
Don't make it so hard
Make it easy not to behave, you know I don′t wanna behave

There′s an hourglass standing on the edge of the night
When you're long gone, baby, maybe I′ll say goodbye
Every moonshine, hold myself imagining too
Let the time pass, hourglass
(Hourglass, hourglass)
(Hourglass, hourglass)

All the photographs staring back are haunting my dreams (mmm)
And the lavender's leading my love deep into sleep (eh)


Don′t make it so hard
Make it easy not to behave, you know I don't wanna behave
Don′t make it so hard
Make it easy not to behave, you know I don't wanna behave

There's an hourglass standing on the edge of the night
When you′re long gone, baby, maybe I′ll say goodbye
Every moonshine, hold myself imagining too
Let the time pass, hourglass (Woo!)
There's an hourglass standing on the edge of the night
When you′re long gone, baby, maybe I'll say goodbye
Every moonshine, hold myself imagining too
Let the time pass, hourglass

Shadows in the mirror, two ships in the night
Stuck in the middle
You′re moving on, you're moving on
Shadows in the mirror, two ships in the night
Stuck in the middle
You′re moving on, you're moving on
Yeah (woo, ah)


There's an hourglass standing on the edge of the night
When you′re long gone, baby, maybe I′ll say goodbye
Every moonshine, hold myself imagining too
Let the time pass, hourglass (Ah, yeah)
There's an hourglass standing on the edge of the night
When you′re long gone, baby, maybe I'll say goodbye
Every moonshine, hold myself imagining too
Let the time pass, hourglass

Shadows in the mirror (hourglass, hourglass)
Two ships in the night
Stuck in the middle (hourglass, hourglass)
You′re moving on, you're moving on
Shadows in the mirror (hourglass, hourglass)
Two ships in the night
(Hourglass, hourglass)
