Just a Few Seconds Songtext
von Nemo James

Once upon a distant time
Before the world was yours or mine
Seasons went and seasons came
While seconds passed by just the same
As the seconds that still pass us by
Some that laugh and some that cry
Marching forward with the strength of time
Not caring where we draw the line

Oh oh don′t look back
The tolling bell will never crack
Whether your time is short or long
In just a few seconds, you'll be gone


When dreams come calling to our beds
The grandest scenes may fill our heads
They have no reason they have no rhyme
They′ve no respect for tide nor time
I've heard it said that the longest dream
Will pass in seconds though it might not seem
So seize the day and make it yours
Set your sails to distant shores

Oh oh don't look back
The tolling bell will never crack
Whether your time is short or long
In just a few seconds, you′ll be gone

Time weighs heavy on a waiting child
While loving parents stop and smile
Wishing that they could slow the time
Before their children start to climb

Oh oh don′t look back
The tolling bell will never crack
Whether your time is short or long
In just a few seconds, you'll be gone
