Grains Of Sand

Bobby wears his cap and a baseball jersery

That carries the name of his favorite star

He's waiting at the curb Daddy better hurry

It's quarter to 12 and the games about start

Momma comes outside and she breaks the bad news

Daddy called to say he can't go

Bobby can't believe Daddy missed their weekend

Three times in a row

And another grain of sand

Slips through the hor glass

Out of our hands

The days go flying past

And sometimes we forget

That mountains of regret

All start with grains of sand

Everytime "I love you" goes unspoken

Everytime "I'm sorry" goes unsaid

Every door before us left unopened

Is just another chance we may never get

If we just live our lives like there's no tomorrow

Think of all the things we change

Time is something precious we can't borrow

Once it runs away

And another grain of sand Slips through the hour glass

Out of our hands

The days go flying past

And sometimes we forget

That mountains of regret

All start with grains of sand
