    Story Behind the Song
    A test of a good song is whether you can play it with different feels or styles and it still works. I've been playing this song for years as a ballad but I think it might work even better as a Bossanova. It gives you the feeling of time moving along and there's nothing you can do to slow the pace.
    Recorded on November 25, 2001 at BAMT Studio, Toronto.

    Lyrics
    Sand in the glass
    Always falling down so fast
    That you can't even stop for breath
    As your life passes by
    Will you show me
    How to get to
    A place out of reach
    Of the Hands of Time

    Soon as night turns to day
    It turns to night
    Yesterday moving out of sight
    In the blink of an eye
    Time is slipping
    Through your fingers
    And it won't wait for you to
    Catch up to the moment just past

    So I dream of a place
    Where the bells will not sound anymore
    And the clocks will stop ticking
    There is no rush
    Just relax a while
    And look back on the things you've done

    It's a race
    To the finish of the course
    And you're riding the fastest horse
    She can't stop for you now
    Will you show me
    How to get to
    A place out of reach
    Of the Hands of Time
