Lying in my bed I hear the clock tickin', think of you
Turning in circles, confusion is nothing new
Flashback to moon nights, almost left behind
A suitcase of memories, time after sometime

You picture me, I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear what you have said
And you say, "go slow, I've fallen 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
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting,
Time after time....time after time

After your picture fades and darkness has turned to grey
Watching through windows, I'm wondering if you're ok
And you say, "go slow, I've fallen behind"
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'll be waiting, 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
Time after time

    so want this played at my funeral. can be morbid or a song of hope, depending on how you feel when you listen to it and how you chose to view it. love every version of this but Eva's is the best. huge fan of her work. her voice is just the best!!

    i would dedicate this song to anyone i love and who means alot to me. just to let them know that no matter what, if they are happy or sad, up or down, i will be waiting, always ready to be there for them...time after time.
