 D A      D  A
Lying in my bed I hear
       D   A
the clock tick,
      D       A
And think of you
 D     A      D   A      D A
Caught up in circles confusion-
       D    A
Is nothing new
  D    E   C#m  D
Flashback-warm nights-
   E          C#m
Almost left behind
  D  E       C#m   D
Suitcases of memories,
 D   E
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:
     A
If you're lost you
     E            F#m
Can look-and you will

find me
 D   E      A
Time after time
        A
If you fall I will
               F#m
catch you-I'll be
waiting
 D    E     A
Time after time
     A
If you're lost you
     E            F#m
Can look-and you will

find me
 D   E      A
Time after time
        A
If you fall I will
               F#m
catch you-I'll be
waiting
 D    E     A
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

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 said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

Chorus

Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
