Time After Time — Cyndi Lauper

 

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick

and think of you

caught up in circles, confusion

is nothing new --

Flashback -- warm nights,

almost left behind,

suitcase of memories,

time after ...

 

... sometimes you picture me,

I'm walking too far ahead --

you're calling to me, I can't hear

what you've said--

Then you say, "Go slow,"

I fall behind --

the second hand unwinds

 

if you're lost you can look and you will find me

time after time

if you fall I will catch you,

I will be waiting

time after time

 

after my picture fades and darkness has

turned to gray,

watching through windows, you're wondering

if I'm okay --

secrets stolen from deep inside

the drum beats out of time--

 

if you're lost you can look and you will find me

time after time

if you fall I will catch you,

I will be waiting

time after time

 

you said, "Go slow,"

I fall behind --

the second hand unwinds --

 

if you're lost you can look and you will find me

time after time

if you fall I will catch you,

I will be waiting

time after time

time after time

time after time

time after time
