time after time

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
Suitcases 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'll be waiting
Time after time
