Time after time
(Cassandra Wilson version off the brown sugar soundtrack)Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
and think of you
caught up in circles confusion
is nothing new
flashbacks warm nights
almost left behind
suitcases of memories,
time after time
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 go slow
I fall behind
the second hand unwinds
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
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

You know I always sing along to that song and never really listened to anything but the "time after time" part. I have much to tell you woman... call me after the 4th (hopefully we aren't hungover) and we do the jogging and the bonding. :P We'll put ole Chuck Norris to the test as well... one day closer to hotties.
I'm thinking about having this sung at my wedding---the chorus fits and some of the words really work, but it is too dark?
