Sometimes I wish that you could see   The way you look at me   If you only saw things through my eyes   Would you finally understand   Or just like grains of sand   Would it slip right through our hands   Time will keep moving on and on      [Hook:]      I don't wanna lose you   But maybe I might have to   It's all I really can do   To save myself   Is this what it's come to   Deep inside we both knew   The day would come I'd have to   Save myself      Love that lifts you up I've found   Can also wear you down   If you could only hear my prayer   I tried to fly without my wings   But there's so many things   That were left up in the air   Time will keep moving on and on      [Hook]      [Bridge:]      You reach a point in life   You have to decide   Between what you want   And what you need to survive      [Hook]
