Beth Nielsen Chapman - Even As It All Goes By lyrics

You could spend your whole life Wanting what you don't have Tangled in the pain and strife Dragging up the ghost of your past You can curse the rain But the river remains Even as it all goes by Baby, it's a long road To the promised land And there are dreams we hold In the palm of our hand We can never know How the story will end Even as it all goes by Flying through the hourgla** Like a grain of sand Every moment opens Right in our hands So love me like a slow dance On a fast train Kiss me while the world flies past And the scenery is changed And as time goes through I will hold on to you Even as it all goes by Flying through the hourgla** Like a grain of sand Every moment opens Right in our hands As fleeting as the first light On a window sill Reaching through the darkest night It can never be still Like the earth that spins Where it ends it begins Even as it all goes by Even as it all goes by Either way it all goes by
