Autumn sets in the sky is pouring down with rain

Being wasted day casts its shadow on the pane

Cold creeps underneath makes you shiver to the bone

Filling your ears with its drone

When your barriers no longer tie your hand

Dance with me and pick a band

Chorus

Broken hourglass the time is running out

Colours drain away and dry leaves spin about  

But you’re near my dear and our oath will not disappear

The colour of your eyes as you sprawl in the pale moonlight

Flickering moments I just ache to hold you tight

How could I describe the way you raise your head

How your laughter wakes the dead

And your nearness will always steal the show

It sets the darkness all aglow

Chorus

Broken hourglass the time is running out

Colours drain away and dry leaves spin about 

But you’re here and our oath holds and will not disappear

And if this lens will

Frame our vow’s thrill

 It will freeze this space and time

I shall always

Wander your ways

Sleep in your barn

Safe from harm

 And die for you

Chorus

Broken hourglass the time is running out

Colours drain away and dry leaves spin about 

But you’re here and our oath holds and will not disappear
