When Seconds Count

Intro:                   verse 1: Can’t remember just how it ended I’m hazy as to how it began Crazy how our lives got so tangled Now we’re simply silent partners again Secretly walking a tightrope Come fall into the arms of the past Pre-Chorus: ’Cause it’s still the same me Still the same you Who swore those promises would still ring true So when your heart cries out In the middle of a sleepless night And you’re suddenly so lonely      When seconds count Count on me Count on me verse 2: Special moments taken for granted A tenderness that found no reward Funny how you’d speak of forever Only to wind up restless and bored Can sweethearts so suddenly strangers Recapture in a moment of fire Pre-Chorus: Well it’s still the same me Still the same you The same two children deep down it’s true So when your heart cries out In the middle of a sleepless night And you’re lost and feeling lonely      When seconds count Count on me Count on me When your dream dies hard And you’re stranded out on the boulevard I’ll be there in a heartbeat      When seconds count Count on me Count on me   Bridge: I’m going back in time To how it used to be Instrumental:                      Bridge: Now it’s a race with time ’Til I change your mind When your heart cries out In the middle of a sleepless night And you’re lost and feeling lonely      When seconds count Count on me Count on me When your dream dies hard And you’re stranded out on the boulevard I’ll be there in a heartbeat      When seconds count Count on me You can always count on me OUTRO:
