Gledhill, Mindy - Hourglass Lyrics
Little boy, when you speak
I can’t help but kiss your cheeks
I love the way you grab my hands
And tell me all about your plans
You and I could hitch a ride
And fly away to Neverland
And give our best to Peter Pan
When you reach for the stars
Don’t forget who you are
And please don’t turn around and grow up way too fast
See the sand in my grasp
From the first to the last
Every grain becomes a memory of the past
Life’s an hourglass
Story’s read, prayer is said
Close your eyes sleepyhead
While angels linger in your dreams
And hold you in their feathered wings
Just like you, I was small
Not that long ago at all
I wish you all the happiness
That God gives freely if you ask
[Chorus]

Gledhill, Mindy Hourglass Comments
This song has done sunbathing that nobody - i repeat, NOBODY - has done to me. That is, made me cry spontaneously. Now, it was an inside reference (none of you know that special Dreams and reaching for the stars are super special to me), BUT STILL 😮😫😫😢😢😧😧😲😲😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😧😧😥😥😢😢
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I have NEVER had that reaction to a song before. And i listen to songs DESIGNED to make me cry, about people dying and being alone, but I've NEVER spontaneously started crying before. EVER. This is crazy guys.
I love your voice, beautiful
Hopefully if I ever have kids ima sing them this song💜 I already sing it to my nephew I love this song and him but him the most but this song reminds me of him, and me lol
the way this music makes me feel including the nostalgia from it is just speechless, i feel like i'm in a safe place and so much more
💖🌸🌿🦋✨💕🍃 Sweet & Lovely
Such a sweet song and deep meaningful message to her son.
Why is this lady not famous 🤔this is awesome beautiful voice and lovely song love it🤗😍
I went YEARS thinking she said "pee their pants" at 0:42

Little boy
When you speak I can't help but kiss your cheeks
I love the way you grab my hands and tell me all about your plans
Rockets high
Comets fly
You and I could hitch a ride
And fly away to Neverland and give our best to Peter Pan
When you reach for the stars, don't forget who you are
And please don't turn around and grow up way to fast
See the sand in my grasp, from the first to the last
Every grain becomes a memory of the past
Oh, life is an hourglass, life is an hourglass
Stories read, prayers said
Close your eyes sleepyhead
While angels linger in your dreams and hold you in their feathered wings
Just like you, I was small, not that long ago at all
I wish you all the happiness, and god gives freely if you ask
When you reach for the stars, don't forget who you are
And please don't turn around and grow up way to fast
See the sand in my grasp, from the first to the last
Every grain becomes a memory of the past
Oh, life is an hourglass, life is an hourglass, life is an hourglass
Beautiful song!!!! Did she write this ???
I can truly feel Mindy's heart in this song...the lyrics are so tender and sweet i almost want to cry
Michelle Phan showed me Mindy Gledhill. I love them both and I've followed both of them for a VERY long time. <3
mary yang same here dude!
Me too! Love them both so much!
This song is my #1 favorite song I LOVE it.
I’ve always wanted a baby boy. When that time comes I promise myself that I will sing this to him♥️♥️♥️
I would play this song for my baby boy while he was still in my belly. Every night before we'd go to bed I'd play it for him, even before he could recognize sound. When I went to my check up at 6 months I was told my baby's heart stopped beating. I still listen to this song and it makes me feel like he's still with me, even though I cry every time. This song will forever be his song in my heart. ❤️
Aww, I'm so sorry. That must have been horrible for you.
I love this song! I have a 3 year old boy and I always think of him when I hear it. So precious!
I'm singing this to my still unborn lil boy Daniel. He's still in my mind, but I'm pretty sure that he'll love this song. I'll try to learn how to sing properly so he'll love me as much as I now love him, even if he's not in this world yet...
Beautiful! Love your voice and the Lyrics.
I love to listen the time when I was I going to Paris while it was nighttime I was till in the airplane it was soo magnificent I love your song Mindy I have all your songs!!!! I you biggest fan!

Damian is such a cute boy **
I am obsessed with this song. Someone in my recital had this song as a solo and I am like AMAZING SONG! Your voice is soft and nice in this song.
I LOVE YOU MINDY! <3
Mindy, oh, Mindy. Please never do change. Your voice is so beautiful. I don't want you to turn into what Taylor Swift changed into. Please cherish your angelic voice and don't ever let anyone put you down. Just like this song, don't ever forget who you are.
ILY,
Sophia ♥
What's wrong with Taylor Swift? She never changed. It's still her.
@Food Swift That sweet little country pop girl is gone, but now she's like any other pop artist, ex's, love, breaking up, revenge, all that bad stuff. Yes, while she may look the same, her "personality" definitely has changed.
Cho Chang I totally agree. And I hope Mindy never changes either. ❤️⚓️☂
I love your songs and voice, Mindy. You're a very wonderful singer!
You are the best Mindy..your voice is so beautiful and soul soothing...
come here in 2016.. I love you Mindy♥♥♥♥
The one thing I don't understand is why this song has 7 dislikes.
Mindy! PLEASE come to Winnipeg for a concert. I will buy all the tickets if I have to. :) I love your voice.
Hi! I really wanted to perform this song for the monthly talent show that they have in my school, but I can't find an instrumental version. Have you made an instrumental to this song?
I know it's late but there is chords on tabs if that helps
Omg, when I hear this song now, it reminds me of daniel Kyre, he recently passed away somewhat last week, and now all I can think about is the happiness that daniel had in himself and all the love he had for others, he was such a lovable guy, I miss him everyday of my life now😔️RIP Daniel Kyre, you were the best there ever was and will ever be❤️☁️💭🌟🙏
OMG I am in love with your voice!

Mindy your to much my Darling I wish you could be on the radio in stead of those other songs from people who poison children's mind
Such an amazing track. Makes me think about what an amazing world we live in, and this makes people think about living their dreams, and i love that.

I used to play this song on my phone and put my phone on my belly every night before going to sleep when i was pregnant, my son is now 18 months old and i have to play/sing it to him every night before going to bed and he smiles and closes his eyes the second i say little boy😍

Harry's tweet brought me here. Maybe he wasn't even talking about this song, but it fits perfectly. His relationship with Louis, his life... Everything.
