Intent gaze on this hourglass, the grains of sand, they slip away,

Vivid pictures and distant sounds that were never meant to stay.

And I look behind, I'm standing now, where I'd never meant to be,

I look behind, to my surprise, I see traces of my dreams.

I look behind, it's a world apart, albeit too familiar to not know,

I think that things are changing, that I have come to grow.

The path I'm on, is strange to me, where will it guide me to?

How far is it leading me? From us? From me & you?

Every time I look behind, I lose a little time,

Every time I lose my time, I fall a little behind.

I will walk on, I may look back and wish we weren't apart,

As for me, I will but always miss you - with all my soul & heart.
