about

Written by Jay Brown & JTR.

lyrics

Sand beneath my toes
How many grains no one knows
One for every line
On the face of Father Time

Something told me as I prayed
There’s just no time to waste

If the words need sayin’ it better be today
There may be no tomorrow there ain’t no yesterday
A sunrise, a sunset, it’s all in the dance
Let's take this moment in our hands
And get our toes into the sand

(Sand) beneath the sun
In our hands it can become
Glass for lookin' through
Or the road to somewhere new

If the moment’s all that’s real
Tell somebody how you feel

If the words need sayin’ it better be today
There may be no tomorrow there ain’t no yesterday
A sunrise, a sunset, it’s all in the dance
Let's take this moment in our hands
Go for broke, take a chance

If the words need sayin’ it better be today
There may be no tomorrow there ain’t no yesterday
A sunrise, a sunset, it’s all in the dance
Let's take this moment in our hands
And get our toes into the sand
