Time After Time

Smokey Robinson & Miracles


(Cyndi Lauper, Rob Hyman) 

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 

[Chorus:] 
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 

After my picture fades and darkness has 
Turned to gray 
Watching through windows - you're wondering 
If I'm OK 
Secrets stolen from deep inside 
The drum beats out of time - 

[Chorus] 

You said go slow - 
I fall behind 
The second hand unwinds - 

[Chorus] 

If you're lost... 
...Time after time 
Time after time 
Time after time 
Time after time
