about

A nostalgic song for a rainy day, it's about rainy day musings, old trinkets, and memories

lyrics

The Hourglass (Lyrics)- ©Mandy Connell
Intro: Instrumental Riff x 2

Verse 1:
I have Four Thousand twenty two beads
Strung up on broken necklaces Balancing on windowsills
Rolling Round in drawers and old containers
Stored within the folds of pages, folded up & tucked away
Memories for rainy days and easy stages

Cho:
Hourglass sifting, Dandelion Lifting, Keeping Time
Hourglass sifting, Dandelion Lifting, Keeping Time

Instrumental Break- Verse ?

Verse 2 :
Can a number be a signal for a hidden intersection?
A twisting of a greater fate, a symbol for connection
Can a number mean stop or go?

Cho:
Hourglass sifting, Dandelion Lifting, Keeping Time
Hourglass sifting, Dandelion Lifting, Keeping Time


Longer Inst: Break / B part- Soloist Impro / Cool Elecric Guitar Section with three part OOohs?

Verse 3:

Honey mark the number down but don’t let it dictate terms
A number’s just a number it won’t tell us how the story turns
The radius is special, but diameter is too
I won’t let a number tell me I don’t get along with you.

Cho:
Hourglass sifting, Dandelion Lifting, Keeping Time
Hourglass sifting, Dandelion Lifting, Keeping Time

Outro: Instrumental Riff x 2
