Burning Daylight ft. Graham Yallop Lyrics

I remember summer beaches

And brown skinned children that ran laughing from the waves

Now winter sees me coming

And reaches out to welcome me as the sunset fades

Burning daylight

Burning daylight

Life slipping right through your hands

Burning daylight

We forget that time is precious

The sound of fortune strings us along

It's just grains of sand that we can't hold onto

While heartbeats play their finite song

Burning daylight

Burning daylight

Life slipping right through your hands

Burning daylight

The more that you see, the less that you have

Where the day meets the night

Burning daylight

All this time

Nothing lasts forever

That is why I count the seconds we're together

Burning daylight

Burning daylight

The more that you see, the less that you have

Where the day meets the night

Burning daylight
