Grains Of Sand Lyrics - The Wilkinsons

Bobby wears his cap and a baseball jersery 

That carries the name of his favorite star 

He's waiting at the curb Daddy better hurry 

It's quarter to 12 and the games about start 

Momma comes outside and she breaks the bad news 

Daddy called to say he can't go 

Bobby can't believe Daddy missed their weekend 

Three times in a row 

And another grain of sand 

Slips through the hor glass 

Out of our hands 

The days go flying past 

And sometimes we forget 

That mountains of regret 

All start with grains of sand 

Everytime "I love you" goes unspoken 

Everytime "I'm sorry" goes unsaid 

Every door before us left unopened 

Is just another chance we may never get 

If we just live our lives like there's no tomorrow 

Think of all the things we change 

Time is something precious we can't borrow 

Once it runs away 

And another grain of sand Slips through the hour glass 

Out of our hands 

The days go flying past 

And sometimes we forget 

That mountains of regret 

All start with grains of sand
