When will the Sands of time begin to flow?
I get this question almost every day.
If I could tell you I would let you know.

The remake was announced so long ago,
And still no demo for the fans to play.
When will the Sands of time begin to flow?

"There must be something soon to show.
Tell us the date!" the gamers say.
If I could tell you I would let you know.

While rumors fly, and are debunked, and grow,
I wonder too, and in much the same way:
When will the Sands of time begin to flow?

It's not that the development is slow,
Just that details are under NDA.
If I could tell you I would let you know.

One day they’ll give the green light: "It's a go!
The trailer drops tonight--so post away!”
Then can the Sands of time begin to flow;
Then I will tell you everything I know.
