Mindy Gledhill - Hourglass

^GLittle boy, when you speak ^G5I can't help but kiss your cheeks I l^Cove the way you grab my hands An^Amd tell me all about your plans

^GRocket high, comets fly ^G5You and I could take a ride And f^Cly away to Neverland And g^Amive our best to Peter Pan

When you re^Cach for the stars Don't for^Amget who you are And please don't t^Emurn around and grow up way too f^Cast See the sa^Cnd in my grasp From the f^Amirst to the last Every g^Emrain becomes a memory of the pa^Cst Oh, life's an hourgla^Css ^DLife's an hourglass

^GStory's read, prayer is said ^G5Close your eyes sleepyhead While an^Cgels linger in your dreams

^GJust like you, I was small ^G5Not that long ago at all I wi^Csh you all the happiness ^CThat God gives freely if you ask

When you re^Cach for the stars Don't for^Amget who you are And please don't t^Emurn around and grow up way too f^Cast See the sa^Cnd in my grasp From the f^Amirst to the last Every g^Emrain becomes a memory of the pa^Cst Oh, life's an hourglas^Cs ^DLife's an hourglas^Cs ^DLife's an hourglass ^G
