Sun Dial

Was it chance that brought us here
The evening sky plays orange turns to blue
And you say it's just too good to be true
With the hint of a smile you look down and tie your shoes

This life is a sun dial
Jolly hours in the sand
Never a shiver
All elements at hand
Cling to the sun dial
And hold on til the dusk swallows us

Yes we knew how to nail the sun
Stop it in it's tracks on it's way down
Just a stroke and the shadows all stood still
Until the day that we lost the catch phrase and then fell from grace

This life is a sun dial
Jolly hours in the sand
Never a shiver
All elements at hand
Cling to the sun dial
And hold on til the dusk swallows us
This life is a sun dial
Jolly hours in the sand
Never a shiver
All elements at hand
Cling to the sun dial
And hold on til the dusk swallows us
