***A friend of mine decided to turn my poem "Sitting in the Hands of Time" into a song. I do not take credit for the song, only for the original poem (which is also posted on this site).***
---------------------------
Like footsteps in the sand
Washed away by the ocean
No more nights of lying in bed
Wishing you were mine one last time
We're nothing but a memory
Sitting in the hands of time
It was good while it lasted
But now its time for us to move on
CHORUS:
We break up to make up
And make up to break up
But baby this time
The make up is gone
Everything's changed
And we can can't make it up now
No more crying
Like there's no tomorrow
No more pain
For my feelings are fading
But now we've reached the end
We must make the choice
To go our separate ways
Or to remain forever friends
REPEAT CHORUS
For now though, I'll just sit here
I'll just sit here and pretend
Pretend I'm not hurting and never once cried
Never once cried about any of this
Sit here with a fake smile on my face
And say "Everything's alright"
All the while I know in the end
I know nothing's gonna be alright after this
We break up to make up
And make up to break up
But baby this time
The make up is gone
Everything's changed
And we can can't make it up now
We break up to make up
And make up to break up
But baby we're just a memory
Sitting in the hands of time
We're just a memory
Sitting in the hands of time
We're just a memory
Sitting in the hands of time
