Burt Bacharach - Seconds lyrics

Seconds I missed him just by seconds I missed him in the moment that it takes a door to open all the plans that i dreamed of all the dreams i was hoping for was shattered by the movement of the little hand that ticks away the seconds thats all it takes is seconds the rain has stopped the traffic and seems my hopes where fading nothing moves across the city while i pray his still was waiting there knowing that my life was running on the hand that ticks away the seconds I got more now than seconds I bet myself a lifetime I got all the time i needed i sit here with this letter nothing else to do but read it nothing else to do but listen while the ticking clock keeps ticking at it left my life with nothing else no nothing else but seconds and all the men i have met since then was seconds Reprise
