[Chorus: Stevie Ross]
With all this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fill an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
'Til you learn to love
Time keeps goin' 'n' goin'
But it won't wait for us

[Verse 1: Tom MacDonald]
I've been livin' in a minute, but it goes quick
I've been livin' on the edge o' my own cliff
I've been thinkin' 'bout the end and I know that
I will fade away eventually, like a glow stick
I just hope that when I go it isn't slow
And everybody that I love already knows
Don't need to clarify; time stands still like it's terrified
And I'm just tryna feel somethin' like I'm paralyzed
I've been havin' flashbacks, peoplе that I laughed at
Thought they didn't get it all along, but rеally they all knew
The only way to relive what you been before
Is if you dream about it or you get caught in a deja vu
No love found means no love lost
I tried to learn about it, but it can't be taught
Spendin' all my time reflectin' on the past
Realizin' everything can fit inside an hourglass
[Chorus: Stevie Ross]
All this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fill an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love
Time keeps goin' 'n' goin'
But it won't wait for us
(It won't wait for us, yeah...)

[Verse 2: Tom MacDonald]
Happy endin's only happen in the movies
I been up and down that road a million times, I feel stupid
I keep lookin' at my watch, but I really need a map
'Cause I'm lost inside the moment, I need to find a way back
I keep on gettin' older, my heart heavy as a rock
And the devil on my shoulder and he's lookin' at the clock
I've been tryna see the future through the rain and the fog
Lookin' out a window that I made from crystal balls
Tryna read between the lines that I have on my palms
I thought it would be easy, but I guess that I was wrong
It's the story of a boy and a girl
With all the time we're spendin' here we could've bought the world

[Chorus: Stevie Ross]
All this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fill an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love
Time keeps goin' 'n' goin'
But it won't wait for us
[Bridge: (Stevie Ross) & Tom Macdonald]
(No, it won't wait for us...)
So, don't trip when it runs out
(And it won't wait for us...)
If you ask it to slow down
(And it won't wait for us...)
If you need a second to catch your breath
You should probly do it 'fore you're in over your head
You never know you're livin' 'til you love someone to death!

[Chorus: Stevie Ross]
All this time we're spendin'
Thinkin' 'bout the past
I could take my happy endin'
And fill an hourglass
You never know you're livin'
Until you learn to love...
