Lyrics
THE GLASS OF SAND Text/Music: S.Christensen -91
The world belongs to nobody special
we´re all just passengers in time.
The wind in empty houses
and the voices of the darkness
we´re all just prisoners of time.
That´s our destiny to be satisfied
with the life we see in our dreams.
In a world of illusion -
love and temptation - (Kor)
sun, beach and palmtrees.
(Bridge)
Keep a part of me when I´m gone
´cos I gotta have your love.
Don´t blame yourself the crusaders have gone
and the sands are running out
the beginning of a new arising.
(Chorus)
Time is running out so fast
but ain´t you glad you came? (gentages af kor)
A peaceful rest at last
the glass of sand has chosen your name.
How we have to suffer from this dream of eternal life
a dance through tears and hope.
Together we were stronger
we could face separation
climbing without ropes.
So deep to fall when life is gettin´ evil
and slowly draining the glass of sand.
The big sky and the silence -
is waiting for you - (Kor)
to put an end to an arid past.
