Pause

I'm gonna make time slow

To a virtual standstill

Let the rain hang in the air

Let it fall when I say it will

Leave your shadow on the doorway

Leave your coat across the chair

I can live without tomorrow

If tonight still has you there

Where's the life that I recognize?

Was it all a dream?

I keep waking to the daylight

Looking for a scene

Somewhere I could pull it open

Somewhere I could slip back through

To the moment before knowing

What the morning meant for you

Pause

I'm gonna make time stop

Leave the second hand trembling

Before the next one drops

Let me finish what I'm saying

Let me hear you say my name

If I hold this moment open

Can you find your way again?

Sometimes dreams come true

Whether you want them to or not

You warned me that you could foresee

These things happening to you, I could not

I was making plans for Sunday

You were watching something change

Now the words you spoke so softly

Sound so different when replayed

The more my wheel, my red tire

Go turn the people blue

I spent so long believing

There was something I could do

Now my head is on the hood

And I'm frightened to let go

Of the last unfinished second

Of the life we used to know

Pause

I'm gonna make time stop

I don't need to keep forever

Just the little that we've got

Let the rain hang in the air

Let the host now hold his breath

You were here when this began

You were here a morning back

I'm gonna make time slow

To a virtual standstill

Pause

I'm gonna make time slow
