When The Sand Runs Out
I spent the morning at an old friend's graveFlowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good manHe spent his whole life spinnin' his wheelsNever knowin' how the real thing feelsHe never took a chance or took the time to danceAnd I stood there thinking as I said goodbyeToday's the first day of the rest of my lifeI'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' onAnd learn how to face my fearsLove with all of my heart, make my markI wanna leave somethin' hereGo out on a ledge, without any netThat's what I'm gonna be aboutYeah, I wanna be runnin'When the sand runs out'Cause people do it everydayPromise themselves they're gonna changeI've been there but I'm changin' from the inside outThat was then and this is nowI'm a new man, yeah I'm a brand new manAnd when they carve my stone, they'll write these words"Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth"I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' onLearn how to face my fearsLove with all of my heart, make my markI wanna leave something hereGo out on a ledge, without any netThat's what I'm gonna be aboutYeah I wanna be runnin'When the sand runs out, oh yeahAnd as a cold wind blows across the graveyardI think I hear, the voice of my old friend whisper in my earI'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' onLearn how to face my fearsLove with all of my heart, make my markI wanna leave somethin' hereGo out on a ledge, without any netThat's what I'm gonna be aboutYeah I wanna be runnin'When the sand runs outI wanna be runnin'When the sand runs outYes I do
