The embers that were crushed in his hands
Crumble into the relentless sands
That falls like snow from an hourglass
So slowly, the time can now only pass

I don’t think you’ll ever realize
How much is waiting for you in the end
Why must people only be just friends?
Why won’t the truth simply reach your eyes?

That day we separated
We forgot our past
Like it never meant anything to begin with
Like it ever did, I don’t think it did

Oh how time passed so slowly
Like the relentless sands
That falls like snow from an hourglass
Slowly, how slowly the time can pass

But I was taken by surprise
When I was walking on a path that led me to you
And yet still, the same blazing fire within me
Leads me on before I could turn back
Your eyes met mine, and mine met yours

I never thought this day would come
I never thought time would catch up with us
No I never thought you’d finally realize, that I’d realize
The truth had finally reached your eyes

On that day, I could finally see
It wasn’t you who hadn’t realized the truth
But it was I, who was blinded by the very fire
That lit your eyes with the very life that kept me going
