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

Time after time.                                                             (sing365)


The tear that Lauper sheds at the end of the video is authentic. She rejected the director's suggestion to manually induce a tear because she was confident in her ability to cry when she wanted to.                                                                                                (songfacts.com)
