Hourglass Promise

Grains of time keep falling slow Each one whispers what I know Through the silence, through the years Your voice still echoes in my ears They say it's chance, they say it's fate But I've been waiting at the gate Every lifetime, every dawn The thread of love keeps pulling on Ah, when the hourglass is empty I'll see you again At the edge of night, beyond the end Even if the world forgets our names The promise shines, it never fades Ah, through the falling sands I'll find your face At the moment time resets in your embrace Countless lives, countless skies Yet your light never dies And when the last grain disappears I'll be standing, you'll be near Turn the glass, begin anew Every time I'll come to you No distance, no eternal night Can break the vow we hold inside Ah, when the hourglass is empty I'll see you again At the edge of night, beyond the end Even if the world forgets our names The promise shines, it never fades Ah, through the falling sands I'll find your face At the moment time resets in your embrace
