Hourglass

You say, it’s hard to say no
These emotions that you hold, give you no control
You’re on auto pilot taking you where you need to go
But baby don’t leave, I don’t wanna let you go
These thoughts go by so fast while
We’re dreaming of days that will never last
I’ll find my way back to this home we made
It’s like all of the things that I tried to say
Just came out the wrong way, but I’ll keep trying till you hear me
What will it take?
What will it take to get your attention now?
It won’t be long
No it won’t be long, baby I’ll show you
That if your heart speaks too, then Listen to what it’s been saying to you
What will it take to get your attention?
Baby it won’t be long
Looking back I never thought this through
All the days that I spent with you
Just ended up being a waste of our time
It’s like the clock ticks as we talk
And now we’re just counting the minutes, as they pass by
These thoughts go by so fast while
We’re dreaming of days that will never last
I’ll find my way back to this home we made
It’s like all of the things that I tried to say
Just came out the wrong way, but I’ll keep trying till you hear me
What will it take?
What will it take to get your attention now?
It won’t be long
No it won’t be long, baby I’ll show you
That if your heart speaks too, then listen to what it’s been saying to you
What will it take to get your attention?
Baby it won’t be long
You got me all mixed up girl
You got me all torn down
But, I’ll never run away from this true love I’ve found
It won’t be long
Until you see the things we can be
It won’t be long
Before you start to think back and dream of me
Baby I’m not wrong
I know you can, if we just believe
It won’t be long
I can show you that I’m not wrong!
What will it take to get your attention?
Baby it won’t be long
But if you could learn to be patient
I’ll show you that I’m not wrong
And I know your heart speaks too
Just listen to what it’s been saying to you
If these words fall onto deaf ears then my heart beats for no one
