The hourglass Lyricsby Savatage Buy album CD: Wake Of Magellan Standing alone by the edge of a river He's traded his life for a glass full of tears The bargain was quick for one's life is less dearer When the sand's running out and the ending is near The ending is near The ending is near The ending is... * The man climbed aboard and set sail for the ocean He put on the mast all the canvas she'd take Then laid himself down on the deck neath the tiller The ship was his coffin this moment his wake Runaway reasons Runaway seasons Time is a treason That I give back to you now The wind touched the sail and the ship moved the ocean The wind from the storm set the course she would take From a journey to nowhere towards a soul on the ocean From the wake of magellan to magellan's wake Runaway reasons Runaway seasons Everything in it Hours and minutes You take tomorrow Because it means nothing To me To me To ... In the dark he heard a whisper Asking him to understand In the desert look for water On the ocean look for land In the dark he heard a whisper Asking him to understand In the desert look for water On the ocean look for land And there in the waves Was a man in his grave That he saw in the night 'Tween the flashes of light And he Could not be there And all he had prayed Or had given away He now found to be wrong In the grip of the storm And he Could not be there Could you keep our lives together Safely back onto the shore Could you grant this last illusion Only this and nothing more Could you keep our lives together Safely back onto the shore Could you grant this last illusion Only this and nothing more And all at once the heavens bled their fire The anchor broke the chains they flew away And suddenly the waves were reaching higher And in the dark I thought I heard them say Could you keep our lives together Safely back onto the shore Could you grant this last illusion Only this and nothing more Everything I ever had for one more tomorrow Everything I ever had for just one more night And if this is not to be I pray could I borrow Just another final hour onto my life Did you ever really want to Did you ever really want to Lord, tell me how it will be Lord, tell me how it will be Standing once more by a boat on a river He pushes it off while he stays on the land And seeing the hourglass now so much clearer Which someone had refilled by hand And somewhere that boat's now adrift on the ocean The mast at full sail and there's no one on board The hourglass no longer sits by the ocean Only his footprints all alone on the shore And soon they're no more No more No more
