When The Sand Runs Out Lyrics

I spent the morning at an old friend's grave
Flowers and 'Amazing Grace', he was a good man
He spent his whole life spinning his wheels

Never knowing how the real thing feels
He never took a chance or took the time to dance
And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye
Today is the first day of the rest of my life

I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on
And learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, without any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah, I wanna be running
When the sand runs out

'Cause people do it everyday
Promise themselves they're gonna change
I've been there, but I'm changing from the inside out

That was then and this is now
I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net }
And when they carve my stone, they'll write these words
"Here lies a man who lived life for all it's worth"

I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on
And learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, without any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah, I wanna be running
When the sand runs out

The cold wind blows across the graveyard
I think I hear the voice of my old friend whisper in my ear

I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on
And learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, without any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah, I wanna be running
When the sand runs out

Yes I do
