For a Second of Your Smile Songtext
von Fast Trains

Any minute I′ll be right with you
As my clock strikes 11:65
And I'm 12 hours into the saddle
But I′m already 7 days behind

And my pendulum's swinging
While the cuckoos are singing

"Come play, take things slowly
Your weight just keeps dragging you down"
I've been overstretching time
Breaking clocks for a second of your smile

And you pray I′m not going crazy
And you say that my efforts are futile
Ever straining to block the shadows
As I try hard to break this sundial


Is my pendulum swinging?
Are the cuckoos still singing on?
Is my pendulum swinging?
Are the cuckoos still singing?

"Come play, take things slowly
Your weight just keeps dragging you down"
I′ve been overstretching time
But just for a second

"Come play, take things slowly
Your weight just keeps dragging you down"
I've been overstretching time
Breaking clocks for a second of your smile

Because I′m always counting seconds until you smile
Because I'm always counting seconds until you smile
Because I′m always counting seconds until you smile
