I feel a pauper each and every day
And I like to feel this way
With funny early dreams of rolling in the sand
Falls through my hand

An hourglass I've made myself to be
And I never saw eyes so brown
Looking at me
And following streams of raindrop dreams
They seem like teardrops through my window
They call to me while sitting in my bed, the color of red
And now I will prepare myself for sleep
And I never saw eyes so brown
Looking at me
But I know it was so long ago
And my heart gets lost in time
Lost inside your glass case
And I hope I always will
I feel a pauper each and every day
And I like to feel this way
With funny early dreams of rolling in the sand
Falls through my hand
An hourglass I've made myself to be
And I never saw eyes so brown
Looking at me
