Savatage - The Hourglass слова песни

(O`Neill/Oliva/Pitrelli)Standing alone by the edge of a riverHe`s traded his life for a glass full of tearsThe bargain was quick for one`s life is less dearerWhen the sand`s running out and the ending is nearThe ending is nearThe ending is nearThe ending is...The man climbed aboard and set sail for the oceanHe put on the mast all the canvas she`d takeThen laid himself down on the deck `neath the tillerThe ship was his coffin this moment his wakeRunaway reasonsRunaway seasonsTime is a treasonThat I give back to you nowThe wind touched the sail and the ship moved the oceanThe wind from the storm set the course she would takeFrom a journey to nowhere towards a soul on the oceanFrom the wake of Magellan to Magellan`s wakeRunaway reasonsRunaway seasonsEverything in itHours and minutesYou take tomorrowBecause it means nothingTo meTo meTo...In the dark he heard a whisperAsking him to understandIn the desert look for waterOn the ocean look for landIn the dark he heard a whisperAsking him to understandIn the desert look for waterOn the ocean look for landAnd there in the wavesWas a man in his graveThat he saw in the night`Tween the flashes of lightAnd heCould not be thereAnd all he had prayedOr had given awayHe now found to be wrongIn the grip of the stormAnd heCould not be thereCould you keep our lives togetherSafely back onto the shoreCould you grant this last illusionOnly this and nothing moreCould you keep our lives togetherSafely back onto the shoreCould you grant this last illusionOnly this and nothing moreAnd all at once the heavens bled their fireThe anchor broke the chains they flew awayAnd suddenly the waves were reaching higherAnd in the dark I thought I heard them sayCould you keep our lives togetherSafely back onto the shoreCould you grant this last illusionOnly this and nothing moreEverything I ever had for one more tomorrowEverything I ever had for just one more nightAnd if this is not to be I pray could I borrowJust another final hour onto my lifeDid you ever really want toDid you ever really want toLord, tell me how it will beLord, tell me how it will beStanding once more by a boat on a riverHe pushes it off while he stays on the landAnd seeing the hourglass now so much clearerWhich someone had refilled by handAnd somewhere that boat`s now adrift on the oceanThe mast at full sail and there`s no one on boardThe hourglass no longer sits by the oceanOnly his footprints all alone on the shoreAnd soon they`re no moreNo moreNo more
