Life in the Sand

Bags are in the lobby, I’m waiting on a car
Still time for one more mai tai at that beachfront bar
Sat down next to a stranger, with a parrot tattoo
Trying to sip in every last drop of that blue water view
Drink in hand I looked at this man and said
Dude this week flew by I don’t want it to end
This place has it all and leaving’s gonna be hard
He said man I never close my tab, you’re in my backyard

Time ticks by if you’re living or not
You can’t flip the hourglass when the seconds are gone
You can watch the sand fall, slipping right through your hands
Or you can live life, live life in the sand
Live life, live life in the sand

He said I had the great job but man I hated it
So I kicked those shoes off cuz they didn’t fit
The view from the top of that ladder is nice
But it’s nothing like a sunrise in paradise

Time ticks by if you’re living or not
You can’t flip the hourglass when the seconds are gone
You can watch the sand fall, slipping right through your hands
Or you can live life, live life in the sand

(He said) It’s on you to slow it down
Decide what really counts
CH
Time ticks by if you’re living or not
You can’t flip the hourglass when the seconds are gone
You can watch the sand fall, slipping right through your hands
Or you can live life, Live life!
Time ticks by if you’re living or not
You can’t flip the hourglass when the seconds are gone
You can watch the sand fall, slipping right through your hands
Or you can live life, live life in the sand
