Sometimes I wish that you could see

The way you look at me

If you only saw things through my eyes

Would you finally understand

Or just like grains of sand

Would it slip right through our hands

Time will keep moving on and on



[Hook:]



I don't wanna lose you

But maybe I might have to

It's all I really can do

To save myself

Is this what it's come to

Deep inside we both knew

The day would come I'd have to

Save myself



Love that lifts you up I've found

Can also wear you down

If you could only hear my prayer

I tried to fly without my wings

But there's so many things

That were left up in the air

Time will keep moving on and on



[Hook]



[Bridge:]



You reach a point in life

You have to decide

Between what you want

And what you need to survive



[Hook]
