Hourglass Blues

Come look through the hourglass
Take a peer through, my dear
See the beauty of it all
Let it sound through chimes
Carry you far, none to go to
Let it be, and have a cheer
Come look through the hourglass
My dear

And if you see what you want
The animals of nature
Are all the people you know
But those ones you taunt
Are you, and soon you will
You will be true
Kindness and thoughtful blues
You will ensue
Because you are them
And you know you
You will ensue

And if you look
Look through the hourglass
Summerset evenings become dead
The bread on table
Gazes through you
The cries of the end
Knowing it could happen to you
So, look through the hourglass
Let it gaze into you
You will see all could be
See the beauty, but dread
Not having bread
It happens to soon
Morning to noon
Nights through and through
Tough of you
Rough for you
Is it too soon

Ask what you want to see
Through the hourglass
Through the hourglass
How much more of this
Is what you ask
Time will tell
The future holds
Strong and true
The bread, cries for you
So you don't have to

Through the hourglass
Through the hourglass

You hear it calling
Gaze through blues
Let it call home
Home to you
Too soon, home will be for you

Through the hourglass
Through the hourglass
Through the hourglass
Through the hourglass

Leer through the blues
My home for you, my dear
Just look through the hourglass
Of all the times to pass
