Hourglass

It must be hard to not recall
The pictures hanging on your wall
I wonder if you know my name
Your mind has led you far away
You're a stranger, in a body
Who held me as I fell asleep
A ghost walking hallways
Stumbling on memories
The strangest part of letting go
Is knowing I have no control
I'm trying to get back
Time we didn't have
It's slipping so quick
Through my fingertips
And I think I've realized
That sand moves way too fast
Way too fast
Through the hourglass
I wish that I could ask you if you're scared
But I know you'd still say that heaven's real
Now grandpa's crying on the phone
Cause he hears God calling you home
Fabric of my own heart
Without you, I'm torn apart
I'm feeling the silence
Without you it's just too hard
The strangest part of letting go
Is knowing I have no control
I'm trying to get back
Time we didn't have
It's slipping so quick
Through my fingertips
And I think I've realized
That sand moves way too fast
Way too fast
Through the hourglass
Will I forget the way you laugh
The way you cry after goodbyes
How it sounds when you're humming to yourself
You in your garden talking to the flowers
How you helped them grow
How you helped me grow
I'm trying to get back
Time we didn't have
It's slipping so quick
Through my fingertips
And I think I've realized
That sand moves way too fast
Way too fast
Through the hourglass
